Military / Veterans Report

Anheuser-Busch Extends Military Tribute
Anheuser-Busch has extended its Here's to the Heroes program through 2007. The program provides a single day's free admission to any one SeaWorld or Busch Gardens park, Sesame Place, Adventure Island or Water Country USA for the servicemember and as many as three of his or her direct dependents. Any active duty, active reserve, ready reserve servicemember or National Guardsman is entitled to free admission under the program. He or she need only register, either online at http://www.herosalute.com/ or in the entrance plaza of a participating park, and show a Department of Defense photo ID.


Program Serves Wounded Warriors
The Army's Wounded Warrior Program, dubbed AW2, is designed for soldiers severely wounded in the war on terror. AW2 provides information and assistance to aid soldiers and their families through the recovery process and beyond, from medical evacuation to reintegration into the work force. In addition, AW2 tracks and monitors our Severely Wounded Warriors for a period of time beyond their medical retirement or return to duty in order to provide appropriate assistance though an array of existing service providers. For more information, visit the
Wounded Warrior website.
GI Bill Benefit Expiration Date
Once you have separated from the service you have 10 years to use all of your benefits. Although separating from service "starts the clock" on your 10-year time limit, you should know that if you rejoin active-duty service for more than 90 days, during the 10- year period, your 10-ear clock is reset. In other words, you get 10 years from your last discharge. Visit the
GI Bill FAQ page for more information.

In addition to using your GI Bill, Military.com has more than $300 million worth of scholarships in our database geared specifically for servicemembers, veterans, and their families. Take a look and find the right scholarships for you.

Hi,

I like your blog very much. I'm in the Air Force and I'm stationed in Germany. I created a blog to help military members with their finances. I would like to know if we could exchange links. Thanks.
