A retired Air Force Colonel I golf with was in Vietnam. He has diabetes and various other ailments which have been associated with Agent Orange. About a year ago I mentioned the Agent Orange program the military has been conducting. He knew nothing. He's now getting almost double his retirement pay, and half of that is tax free. It pays to keep up with the benefits. I qualified for a Vietnam bonus that I never applied for. (Harry would love to know why I didn't) I wonder if I could still apply and get it, plus interest. Nah. Was that the Frank Sergeant "bonus" when he was governor of MA? If I remember, it was $50 or something like that. No, but that's another one. I think that was a state bonus of $500 but could be wrong. Maybe it was less. Haven't thought about this for a long time. Eisboch |
