Medical benefits tied to her retired husband’s U.S. Army service had expired just 12 hours before,

Tricare is something I know about and this is wrong. If you are married to a military retiree your benefits never expire unless you remarry.

Now you card may expire, but that does not mean the benefits have, you just have to go to a base or armory and get a new card.

This article is confusing (no surprise, MSM).

It says the husband “separated due to an injury” from the army with 13 years service and would have Tricare for 6 months afterwards.
