Thanks! Now I wonder what percentage of vets are below the poverty line vs outright homeless. I know people who joined up because they were poor to begin with.

Thanks! Now I wonder what percentage of vets are below the poverty line vs outright homeless. I know people who joined up because they were poor to begin with... and in general it seems to have worked out pretty well for them, though none of 'em are particularly rich. But maybe these are the "good work ethic" slice of the bunch? I have nothing but anecdotal evidence.
