Veterans Corner EDITOR'S NOTE: Below are authoritative answers by the Veterans Administration to some of the many current questions from former servicemen and their families. Further information on Veterans benefits may be obtained at any VA office: Q I am eligible for vocational rehabilitation training from the Veterans Administration because of injuries suffered in Viet-Nam. However, I understand that I will receive only $1 10 a month for vocational training compared with $130 a month for regular Gl Bill training. Why the difference? A - The "difference" is that in addition to the $110 a month subsistence allowance you will receive while undergoing vocational rehabilitation training, your tuition, books, fees and other costs normally associated with your training will also be paid by the Veterans Administration. Veterans taking training under the G.I. Bill must pay these costs out of their monthly educational allowance. You probably realize you will also receive compensation payments for your service connected disability whether you take either type of training or none at all. 0 Is it true that a veteran with a service - connected disability can obtain up to $10,000 National Service Life Insurance? I am a World War II veteran and have a 10 per cent disability. A - To receive up to $10,000 National Service Life Insurance coverage a veteran must have been discharged after April 24, 1951. you can shop your own "supermarket" right at home! Fast freezing!
