Lots of injuries and diseases can occur later or after inactive military service, and a veteran should be allowed to receive compensation, as these injuries or diseases can last during the veterans inactive life. Even if they are noncombat related.

My first reaction is, yes, but I’m thinking about a REMF who gets drunk and plows into a farm truck on the way to bingo. I know a person who got into a car crash off duty and has been sucking the government teat for 20 years. But as far as a service related disability, non-combat, then I’d have to give that more thought. I developed bad feet and a bad back while in the army. Am I entitled to disability? Nope, I don’t think so. Not in my case, at least.

No. Some injuries received during combat you can not see with the naked eye. All veterans that have fought for their country deserve to be compensated. Period. That's the least the government can do for them. I believe all active and retired and veterans period deserve more for what they do. It takes courage to sign your name on that line a die for a country that sometimes doesn't even act like they care about you. Yes you volunteer, but still you are putting your life on the line. You have some in office who have never seen a battle field not even seen a military branch and are paid for the rest of their lives for saying yes or no.... Really.... YES they deserve it!!

NO they should not feel bad! Some injuries are not able to be seen with the naked eye. Meaning some people have internal injuries......
