Veterans who left miliary service with an other-than-honorable discharge or after a special court-martial for misdemeanor offenses will be eligible for the first time for veterans' health care and benefits following a rule change announced Thursday by the Department of Veterans Affairs. The veterans will be considered for VA care and services under a "compelling circumstances exception," if they can show that mental health problems, cognitive impairment, combat-related hardship, military sexual trauma or other identified factors contributed to their dismissal, the VA said. Veterans' length of service and overall performance during military duty also will be considered.

Didn't those who refused the vax shot get booted out under less than honorable?

Hopefully this new change will cover them.

This is part-and-parcel of a wider sweep.

Last paragraph.."The VA also said Thursday that it will take additional steps to ensure that it is providing full and fair access to health care, disability compensation and other benefits for veterans who discharged because of “homosexual conduct, gender identity or HIV status.”

Exactly. The Covid “vaccine” was a dangerous farce that cost many good ones their careers. The great guy that pressure washed our old church was driven out because of it. He, like me, knew something about the shot was nefarious. He smelled a rat, a monkey, a martin, and a master. No wonder the purple haired women in charge cannot get enough applicants. Stupid is as stupid does. Did I mention how stupid the Covid vaccine is?
