Stop in for a cup of coffee

I have the same attitude...and my buddies that have a VA relationship beat me up about not doing something. I've been out for 16 years now and it makes it harder as time goes by. Just getting the initial rating is good I think (I didn't do it) doesn't mean you have to pursue anything more. Fill out the forms and see where it goes. In 30 years you might wish you had that to fall back on.
And the same to you too Chris. You can still drop an application and see where it goes. All you'd have to do is provide some paperwork and go in for an exam or two. If you receive a rating you will be back paid to the date of your application. It is so simple and tax free money is nice. A small payment for all we went through. You've earned it.
