Veterans Face Four Deadlines Upon Release Four major deadlines face vet erans now being released or dis charged from active duty with the Armed Forces, Mr. Bernard A. O’Hara, Manager of the Vet erans Administration -Regional Office in Wilkes-Barre, said to day._ “The most important dead line,” Mr. O’Hara stated, “con cerns GI insurance and affects veterans who have been releas ed from active service since Sep tember 4, 1956.” Instead of having 120 days in which to apply for a special type of five-year term, non convertible GI insurance, these newly discharged veterans must apply before midnight, Dec. 31, 1956. Veterans with service during the Korean conflict (June 27, 1950 through Jan. 31, 1955) have three years from the date of their discharge or separation to apply for education and training under the GI Bill, Mr. O’Hara said. Most Korean conflict veterans hav'e only a year from the date of their discharge or separation in which to apply for dental treatment. Exceptions are those veterans receiving disability compensation for a service-connected dental condition or those veterans whose dental disabilities are as_a result of combat injuries or service in juries. They may apply at any time. Mr. O’Hara said the same rules for dental treatment ap ply to peacetime veterans and six-month enlistees except that the latter two groups must have been discharged for dis ability incurred in line of duty or are receiving VA compensa tion for a service-connected disability. GI home loan deadline for vet erans of the Korean conflict period is Jan. 31, 1965. Further information on these deadlines and veterans benefits are available at the nearest VA office.
