Benefits for Elderly Veterans and their Dependents

August 3rd, 2009


If someone you know who is a veteran who served during wartime, they may be eligible for pension or compensation benefits. If they served but not during wartime they too may be eligible for benefits as a result of diseases or injury during active duty. In addition the spouse or dependents of a veteran may also be eligible for benefits as well.
