Just wondering if there is some other sort of public service or government service that would qualify someone for college tuition? I ask because (as some here may know) my son is diabetic and will never qualify for the military. (On a more Personal level), he's devastated by that. Most of the males (and one female) in my family were in the military. Wish there were other options for him, he's a smart and capable kid, he just has that one issue.
Well, there are some others that provide assistance currently. I definitely think, though, that we should do more for other civil servants as well. To be frank about it, the military is currently in the works of finding every possible excuse they can muster to not pay for things. It's pretty horrendous. When they do pay, it can take them a year or more to fulfill obligations. I currently have several AR accounts for ROTC and GI Bill students over a year old.
