Know a Veteran? Contact Him

 

There's been quite a bit of online chatter recently about veterans in need, and we've learned something. Many senior centers deliver meals several times a week at very low or even no cost.

Check with the senior center closest to you to find out their policy. You may be a God sent angel to that veteran.

Then there's something we do know a little about and have helped one or two veterans over the years. So many think one has to serve 20 years to get a pension. Not true.

You may not get the largest pension in the world, but if you're a certain age and your income falls within a certain range, you should be entitled to a military pension.

Back to that veteran you're checking on, make sure you take him to the Veterans Affairs Office in your county, along with any paperwork he or she may have. If a veteran is entitled to a pension, he should have it.

Good luck and tell us how it works out!
