    I was diagnosed recently with PTSD and numerous other ailments after I was honorably discharged from the military. right now I'm currently going to school full-time and cannot used my GI Bill for classes to surface a newer career goal. Why ! I'm Just stuck with loans and cannot understand why my GI Bill is not honored . I honored my company with dignity but they cannot do nothing for a veteran who served ..Ridiculous!

    Washington must prioritize its priorities: U.S. Veterans.

    Due to full time job and family, I was unable to start college 1 year after my gi bill expired. Now I'm stuck with over 70k in school loans that I cant pay back. Wasn't able to get job in my field. These benefits should not expire. Now I see they have the post 911 gi bill, but that does not help people that owe school loans because of an expired gi bill. Just isn't fair.

    I am 67; a Vietnam era veteran and would like to go to school. I don't understand why educational benefits should EVER expire.

    GI Bill should never expire, they've earned it and they should keep it.

    This is ridiculous, what happens to all this money that is being collected? In the least, the money should be refunded. The government does not treat service members right and veterans, even worse. With all the false promises that are made to encourage someone to enlist, why not end their association with the military with even more nonsense. I don't get it at all.

    I had the same exact thing happen to myself. I do not think that the GI Bill should ever expire for a Veteran. If the Veterans pay the initial amount, that should be at least a partial guarantee. Thew now know there is a problem with education and military.

    We shouldn't have to conform to a set schedule to return to school. Life happens and we all can't go right now. I put in, I earned it, and it should be there when I need it just like a 401k.
