The US Armed Forces exists in a reality all its own. Members are fed, paid, clothed, housed, and protected in a way few other American citizens can claim. Soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines can shop at low-price grocery stores, protect their families with low-cost insurance, and earn a lifetime pension before they turn 40 years old. In fact, military life offers so many benefits and perks, it’s hard for the average serviceman or -woman to keep track of them. Finally, here is a guide that explains the benefits and how to obtain them. In this Complete Idiot’s Guide®, readers will find: • Clear and precise explanations of active-duty family benefits. • Details on veteran education and medical benefits. • A money-saving guide to discounts for both active duty personnel and veterans.
