Alright! I got two or three possible solutions for you.
1. Did you get a severance payment when you were medically discharged?
2. You are a disabled veteran. Have you submitted a claim to the VA? I get $1,400/mo tax free disabilty from the VA. They will go over your entire record and make a disabilty rating decision based on all your previous service connected medical issues.
3. Have you exhausted you GI bill funds? If not once you get passed PPL the VA will pay 60% up to a spacified level.
