What sort of benefits will VA provide to the veterans of Operation Iraqi Freedom?
The men and women who served in Iraq during combat are eligible for the same array of VA benefits that went to veterans of other conflicts. That includes GI Bill home-loan guarantees, educational assistance and disability compensation. Each of these programs has its own eligibility rules. Iraqi Freedom veterans are also covered by a new benefit. For two years after their discharge, veterans who served in the combat zone can receive VA health care for problems related to their military service without having to prove the connection. Details are available at the nearest VA health care facility. 28. I saw a news program on television that says veterans graves are going unmarked.
