I see you have already received some good advice in reference to the GI Bill and local military grants/scholarships. You may also want to check with military one source (Google it online all one word). Finally I would stop in and visit your local family support center and the base education center. They both have allot of resources and professionals that can provide you with what you need.

Check with the VA, they provide an additional 12 months of education benefits under the Vocational Rehab program for those veterans with disability ratings higher than 30%. Also, many states offer tuition free educations for children of veterans with service-connected disabilities such as here in California kids can attend state colleges tuition free. Along with any Post 911 GI Bill benefits you may have transferred to them, it's possible to to pay for most if not all their education expenses. Lastly, don't forget grants and scholarships, many of which go unclaimed every year. Good luck!

Great opportunity for our Air Force brothers & sisters...
Since its inception in 1942, the Air Force Aid Society (AFAS) has been committed to helping Air Force members and their families realize their academic goals. The General Henry H. Arnold Education Grant program, the centerpiece of the Society's education initiatives, has been overwhelmingly popular. The value and success of this program is demonstrated in the 102,244 grants disbursed since the first awards were made for the 1988-1989 academic year.
