Benefits For Vets

. Assisted living - Vets and spouses can qualify for VA provided aid and attendance service.

. Prescription drugs - Depending on income some Veterans may not need any part D plan at all.

. VA-guaranteed mortgages - particularly in these days when home values are down and depressed NO-down payment is hard to come by, but not for veterans.

. Disability compensation - all of this is important.
