Question

I get compensation from the VA because I can't hear and have tinnitus, am i considered a disabled veteran?

Answer 1

Yes you are, thank you for your service and sacrifice.

Answer 2

Yes, you can now join the Disabled American Veterans, get federal employment preference and make a lot of people feel sorry for you.

Conservatives will consider you a hero, liberals will call you a victim but to both groups you are entitled - and that's all that matters.

Thank you for your service.

Answer 3

Doodles is right, if you are getting a VA check, you are a disabled veteran.

Answer 4
