Well, thank you for your service!
Which branch?
My cousin is in the Air Force, though he's about a year out from retirement.
He is stationed in England and loving the pub life, LOL

I was in the Navy. Retired back in 2006 after 20 years... Tell your cousin to make sure that he has everything documented in his medical record or the VA won't give him anything for it (i.e. if he has trouble sleeping, document it, if he stubs his toe, document it). It will help him out in the long run when he retires (trust me). Also, thank you for your support. It means a lot to us vets.
