Compensation and benefit levels change based on service-connected and non-service-connected, but there is what we call a DIC, and there's also a widow's pension. If a veteran who served in the military in World War II dies—not service-connected in any way, shape, or form—and the widow is left by herself, because of his service in the United States Army, she has the ability to come in and receive a widow's pension from us. It's not tied to any particular thing, but it is income-sensitive.
