I am a retired CW2 and live near a northern state military installation. I get saluted by the gate guards and called Chief when going on post. I half assume from the post policy toward my blue card and half assume from the feeling of saying 'Chief'.

If you're retired, whatever your rank is, you are that to active duty. And that's good enough for me.

I knew NC (#41) sucked (especially for taxes and VA Healthcare overall) before I decided to move back home. I am lucky in that I live near one of the best VA Facilities in Asheville, NC and work across the state line in SC.

I've driven by the VA in Asheville - I was blown away by how nice it looked.

The only negative is in Mental Health, this being the home of Dr. Mark D. Worthen. He is the one who wrote "A Practical Guide to Conducting VA Compensation
and Pension Exams for PTSD and Other Mental Disorders", calling for a more doubting and adversarial approach to PTSD C&P exams.
