Veterans Os Korea Urged To Keep Up Insurance Policies Almost 100,000 Post-Ko rean Veterans Have Special Insurance tips are offered by the Vet erans Administration to veterans who' have special Korean GI insurance. Almost 100,000 post-Korea veterans have taken out the special term in-1 surance to them upon separation from , active military service, VA said. To these new policies, the follow ing three points of advice were of-1 sered: First, get into the habit of pay ing all premiums when they are due. Although the law allows a “grace per iod” of 31 days during which the poli cy remains in effect even if a premium due is not paid, veterans should con sider this provision an emergency] measure and reserve it for an emer-1 gency. Second, do not send cash through the mails in paying premiums, but use a check or money order made pay able to the Veterans Administration. Your canceled check or money order stub will serve as a receipt. Third, be sure to name your bene ficiaries and have this information recorded by VA. This may be done at the nearest VA office. After their separation from active military service, Korean veterans have only 120 days in which to apply for the special term insurance, VA added for the benefit of men and women just released from service.
