I'll give my opinion as a veteran.
I spent almost 32 years serving my country and I didn't ask for anything back. I just asked for support when I got out. At the time, when I was serving in the military, I didn't really care. I had medical support there, and my family had it. We didn't think about it.
The minute you walk out of that door, the first thing that happens is DND cuts you off and Veterans Affairs picks you up. You then have to fight for what you want to get from Veterans Affairs. It's not as simple as saying, “I have bad hearing.” You have to prove to them that you have bad hearing and where you got it.
Being a veteran, I shouldn't have to go through extraordinary lengths to get anything. It's only what I deserve. I'm only asking for what I deserve, not for anything else or anything extra. It's just what we deserve.
