Relevant blurb from another article:

"The family of new glass compositions, which the team calls LionGlass, get their new powers by swapping the soda ash and limestone for either aluminium oxide or an iron compound. The silica content can vary from 40% to 90% by weight."

Depends.

You are eligible to receive free care through the VA for anything you are service connected for. If you haven't talked with a VSO, I would talk with one to see if you qualify for anything beyond 10%. I had a buddy i recently met who had been sitting at 10% for almost 10 years, I encouraged him to look into it again based on what he was telling me about what issues he had been having since service, he's now at 80% and possibly going to hit 100%. He had really bad rater and wasn't working with a VSO the first time.

An example, tinnitus is a very common issue that gets you 10%, this qualifies you for free hearing aids, and they are pretty great. I don't notice the ringing when I wear them, and they are bluetooth, so I can take phone calls and listen to music.

You don't qualify for dental care unless you are either 100%, or are service connected for a dental disability.

I believe that any service connected disability qualifies you for vision care through the VA (based on my reading of the VA website), but I have never personally used this.

Visiting your local VSO can help you determine the specifics of your situation.

 

Does anyone have any benefits questions? There aren't a lot of people here, but I'd be more than happy to answer what I can. I have run into a lot of misinformation with other vets.

The form is ATF4473, it is a government form, and lying on it is a felony.

He also lied about drug use on his paperwork while buying the gun. Which is also felony.

He also also admitted to drug posession while armed, which is another felony.
