Fact: Active duty military and veterans have seen among the smallest cuts (they have been exempted from most budget cutting)

Bullshit. I've received a tiny annual raise at my job for the last couple of years. I have received zero cost-of-living raise in my retired pay, ditto for social security recipients. Has any other welfare program seen zero growth, or actual loss, in the last two years? No.

Has the military budget or the VA budget been cut in the last few years? nope.

and you are lucky you get a pension at all. And you are going to get this up in arms because you might have to pay like 1/10 of what other people have to pay for for health insurance?
