I don't know if you'd call it a pension.I get a 10% disability check,from the Govt!I have gotten it since it was awarded to me,from VN.I don't know if
"pension" is the right terminology.Being wounded,doesn't make you a "Hero",
it just means that you were in the wrong place, at the wrong time.As far as,
I'm concerned,the heros,are the medics,that kept me from bleeding to
death.I'd do it all over again.As Mackenzie said-If you don't stand for something,You'll fall for anything! Irish
P.S.My $.02.
