    Help fund HadIt.com and see less ads Give Google Contributor a tryWith Google Contributor, you contribute a certain amount of money each month. That subscription means that you see fewer ads on the web, and you support the sites that you visit with your money. Theresa "Tbird" Aldrich's insight:With Contributor you'll see fewer ads on millions of sites and on all of your devices. Each time you visit a site and ads are replaced, part of your contribution will fund the creators of that site.

Once you apply for enrollment, your eligibility will be verified. Based on your specific eligibility status, you will be assigned a Priority Group. The Priority Groups range from 1-8 with 1 being the highest priority for enrollment. Some veterans may have to agree to pay copay to be placed in certain Priority Gr…

    Introduction to Spin Codes Even on an Honorable discharge, a "Spin Code" (SPN - Separation Program Number) can hurt a veteran's chance of being hired by a prospective employer. These spin codes were put on DD 214 (discharge papers) from the 1940's through the early 1970's. Veterans can request a new DD 214 with the spin codes removed.
