The Post-9/11 GI Bill has the potential to affect the country in a very positive way. The original GI Bill enabled millions of Veterans to obtain a higher education, bringing about a stronger, more qualified workforce of trained professionals; and so this new bill will carry the same degree of change.

This is an investment in America’s future that will carry on for decades. @e )''*# dfi\ k_Xe (0,#''' m\k\iXej n\i\ n`k_flk _fd\j% J_`ej\b` gf`ek\[ kf X cXZb f] \[lZXk`fe Xe[ \dgcfpd\ek fggfikl$ e`k`\j# Xj n\cc Xj d\ekXc$_\Xck_ Xe[ jlYjkXeZ\$ XYlj\ `jjl\j# Xj k_\ dX`e i\Xjfej ]fi k_\ fm\i$ i\gi\j\ekXk`fe f] _fd\c\jj m\k\iXej% ?fd\c\jje\jj `j k_\ cXjk jkfg `e Xe le]fi$ kleXk\ ifX[ ]fi dXep m\k\iXej# k_\ j\Zi\kXip jX`[% ÈKf [f k_`j n\cc# n\Ëcc _Xm\ kf XkkXZb k_\ \ek`i\ [fnenXi[ jg`iXc k_Xk \e[j `e _fd\$ c\jje\jj#É _\ jX`[% ÈN\ dljk f]]\i \[lZXk`fe#

Age 55-59

*Level Term II monthly premium. This is best non-nicotine rate class. Rates may be higher depending on individual health and lifestyle. **Monthly premiums shown

Compare AAFMAA’s Level Term I low-cost life insurance to SGLI. A great way to supplement your coverage. Unlike SGLI, which stops 120 days after separation or retirement, Level Term I can continue to age 50. AAFMAA’s Level Term II is a great follow on with even greater savings. You pick the amount and the term (5 to 30 years) and your rates never change.

VGLI increases every 5 years. For over 130 years, military families have trusted AAFMAA.

No war, No aviation, and No terrorist clauses.

IN JUST THE BLINK OF AN EYE YOU CAN LOSE AN EYE April 2006. Nighttime mission outside Fallujah. “That blast was so strong it threw me around like no tomorrow…”

This gunner was ready with Revision Sawfly® Eyewear. His vehicle was rocked.

Shrapnel flew. His sight was saved.

IEDs don’t come with warning signals.

You have to be ready. Ready for the worst. Ready with the best. And that’s Revision Eyewear. Powerful ballistic protection. Flawless distortion-free optics.

PROVEN IN COMBAT

“It’s funny how one little piece of plastic can keep you in the fight for another month or the rest of your life…”
