Those of us above 50% are entitled to full coverage, but everybody with a rated injury is entitled to coverage for service-connected issues.

Or have I missed an eligibility change?]]> http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2009/03/on_the_issue_of_1.html#comment-85893 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2009/03/on_the_issue_of_1.html#comment-85893 Wed, 18 Mar 2009 08:07:40 -0600 Comment from RetRsvMike on 2009-03-18

This plan could do that when applied to a seriously injured Soldier or Veteran.

That's why this is a bad ida.
