Thanks for the reply and let me add this.
Maybe "brain dead" wasn't the correct words to use and didnt mean it towards anyone and so forth; sorry if it does offend anyone. I was merely asking because it was something that came to mind during the day. What I meant is taking a class to stay busy / as a hobby / and what-not...so again, please dont take offense -I would edit the post but then again, noone would know what I was talking about.
John, thank you for answering. That brings another question though...what if the VA grants you P&T or IU but you are still within the 10 years for the GI Bill, you cant use it either? Sorry, just asking questions...im not in that situation or anything..just merely trying to see what the VA would do in that case
