Veterans.......?
Q. I need help, i have a school paper that i need to write on whether veterans should get special treatment or not. I need some websites and things that could help me. It has to be a six page paper and i can't find any info, i found a couple books, but i need internet sources too. Thanks for the help! PPL OKAY, My teacher didn't assign this, he is a veteran himself. I picked this, and am sorry that i used the words "special treatment" i did not mean it to offend any1. I believe that veterans should get the benefeits, but i have to have both sides of the argument.

A. I do not deserve special treatment, I joined because I wanted to jump from the sky, fly around in helicopters and scuba dive in exotic places around the world while getting paid. I went to combat, I got hurt, got medals later I got out and now I work and carry on with a life worth living. I do not need any special treatment, thank you anyway. Update: No offence taken; I, like most vets are independent and do not want any inference of dependants on care.

In what ways can the human services organization accommodate veterans according to the law?
Q. I would like to consider one more protected class not mentioned yet- that is veterans. Years ago it used to be that veterans could come home from war and find they did not have a job. Now veterans are protected. In what ways can the human services organization accommodate veterans according to the law? What impacts will this have on the organization while the veteran is deployed?

What are some mental pictures of what veterans have experienced in a war?
Q. My English teacher asked me to write an essay about "Why should veterans be honored?" (5 paragraph essay) And they should be honored because they leave their families and homes for our freedom. But she said we could add a mental picture of what veterans have or are being through during the war. I was clueless because I don't know what its like.

A. OK, imagine the smell of rotting meat. Now imagine a sound so loud that it's like being kicked in the head. Add lying in a pile of decomposing human bodies, and finding yourself covered in maggots. But you can't move, because *friendly* artillery is falling short and if you move an inch you'll be torn to bloody shreds. Physically, I was in that FSLN dump hole for about five minutes. Mentally? I'm back there every night, and have suffered flashbacks that have left me curled up on the ground crying. This is *one* incident, lasting about five minutes. I was in the Army for years, and served in combat on three continents. Some days I'm amazed I haven't killed myself yet.

When will the US Airforce start accepting veterans from other services?
Q. I joined the Marines right after high school and did my 4 years. I'm almost done with college and want to go in as an officer. Does anybody know when the Airforce will start accepting other service veterans or have they ever accepted other service veterans? Thanks all!
Asked by seeking knowledge - Sat Jan 26 20:52:22 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. The Air Force has veteran service (called Prior Service) recruiting drives as needed. Usually they are looking for certain career tracks (MOS's or NEC's). The proceedures for officer candidates would be different than enlisted, however. Your best bet would be to contact a local recruiter for OCS. Do not settle for an enlisted posistion, you spent your time in college. There are lots of great officer programs in all of the branches, the military in general is hurting for medical and intelligence officers now, if it is something you would be interested in, it might be worth pursuing letting them send you to school. Good Luck!!

However, here we have community services that are able to assist with accommodation options for those people that are either homeless, or in danger of becoming homeless. They are usually managed by social workers through either a charity or community health centre. In the case of your friend, if he is a veteran of military background then he may also be able to access these, and more, services through a veterans affairs service.

How can I get a California Veterans representative?
Q. I am a disabled veteran with a 40% rating and I need a Veterans representative. I need one that can offer guidance on a couple of issues I have. Any info you have will be helpful!
Asked by Jennifer Q - Wed Feb 18 03:44:45 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Call your regional office and ask to speak with the American Legion representative. They get answers. It is the VA's job to restrict claims; it is the American Legion's (and DAV's) job to assist the veteran in negotiating the very tough disability road at VA. Having them as my limited power of attorney made all the difference in my claim. Deal with the VA as little as possible...that is why ombudsman organizations like AL and DAV are here...to defend the veteran. This is not to denigrate the fine people who assist us at the VA every day; rather, it is to point out the difference in function of VA vs AL in the adjudication process, which is necessarily an adversarial function. Good luck.

For the past couple years I have lived here I buy a red, white and blue wreath and take it there, say a silent prayer and place it there. When I lived in VA, or if I am in CA I go to an actual VA cemetery and place flags on graves of the deceased and listen to "role call" of the unknown and fallen soldiers". Memorial Day is important, especially at a time when we are fighting so many "controversial" conflicts all around the world. Peace, Love & Happiness

A. No, it is not like in the USA. There are no "special veterans benefits". Once you have demobbed you become an ordinary citizen. There are no guaranteed loans to buy houses. If you have the right basic qualifications you can attend a university for free except for the enrolling fee, but you have to support yourself financially during your studies. You are entitled to a pension which is calculated according to your years of service.

A. well first off, everyone can get post traumatic stress from anything, its all mental, and i have it to be honest. Its not something you can control and its not something that is left unnoticed. You often catch yourself going through random flashbacks of a stressful situation. like I've noticed that when Im playing a video game, doesnt matter which game, but i was playing it and all of a sudden i was thinking about the stressful time that caused the post traumatic stress. and its like you re-live it temporarily, but some time had gone by because i had died on my game and my little sister had come in and asked me what i was doing. it causes bad dreams and makes you want to not sleep. depending on how bad it is. it just overall isnt something… [cont.]

How did veterans make out in President Obama's "stimulus package", anything for those that defend the nation?
Q. In this new stimulus package that is supposed to help get the economy moving, is there anything for U.S. Veterans in this package? First-time homeowners get $15,000 dollars, including illegal immigrants who purchase a home, what was in this package for the "Defenders of Freedom", who already own their homes? liveanddierockandroll: who is toucan?
