Abraham Lincoln famously called for good treatment of military veterans in 1865 by declaring, “To care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his orphan.” Since then, a large number of organizations have been created to help those who have served in the United States Armed Forces. The largest organization, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), provides a wide range of benefits including, Disability, Education and Training, Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment, Home Loan Guaranty, Dependant and Survivor Benefits, Medical Treatment, Life Insurance and Burial Benefits.
