Many reporters, knowing next to nothing about the military, confuse military retirees and other veterans. There is some overlap, of course. For example, now that I'm a 100% disabled veteran, some retiree type privileges are accorded to myself & my family, such as shopping in the commissary & BX/PX, space available travel, CHAMPVA for my spouse, ID cards, using Morale & Welfare facilities like the Hale Koa, the Disney military accommodations and the like.

Clearly.
I am a retiree and was just judged 70%.
Will go to the VA? Eventually, for something. But my day to day will be on base.
