VA and VFW not good gauge, most retired military After 70’s don’t qualify to go there. Their difference between veteran and retired military due to majority after WW2 and Vietnam wars don’t get injured in battle. Just cause you served in military don’t give you automatic VA “ health benefits”. VFW only accepts campaign ribbons from foreign in country wars. Which mean even though you participated but was NOT in country you don’t qualify. To qualify for VA benefits you have to have documentation of your injury while in military that’s on going problem.
