Did you know that as a World;
War II veteran you and your1
family have certain benefit |
rights under Federal old-age and j
survivors insurance? Thousands
of men and, women who served
in the armed forces during the
last war, Including officers and
men still on duty, are not aware |
of this protection offered by the
1950 amendments to the Social i
Security Act.
Primarly the Veterans' Amend 1
ment was intended to prevent !
World War II military service
from depriving persons who gen
erally work in jobs covered by the
law of the benefits to which they
would have been entitled.
In addition ? and this is im
portant to ? you the amendment!
gave temporary protection to vet
erans who have never- worked
under social security,, either be
fore or after their World War II
service. These veterans include
among others the doctors, den- 1
tists, lawyers, farmer, and the |
career military men. To this

curity Ait.
The Veterans' Amendment ap
plies to those 'persons who serv
ed on active duty In the' armed
forces for at least 90 days during
the period September 16.' 1910. to
July 24, 19-17. inclusive.' and -who
were not dishonorably discharg
ed.
Eligibility is not affected by
any pension or compensation
paid to the veteran or his. surviv
ors by the Veterans Administra
tion.
However ? and this is the big
"if" ? if any other Federal 'bene -
fit based in whole or in part on
the World War 11 service is pay
able, the period of military ser
vice cannot be used under old
age and survivors insurance.
This include? such Federal re.
tirement benefits as civil service.
Army ?.iul Navy retirement bene
fits, and those paid by the Rail
road Retirement Board. Most
Federal retirement plans provide
for the use of World War II mil- !
itary service. The amendment]
was not intended to duplicate
credits for military service al
ready used for benefits paid un:

eran is regi larly associated.
