Thank you for this article. It is wonderful to be kept up to date on the PACT act finally being approved. I served in the Navy on the USS Enterprise during Vietnam.

Has there been an update to the two proposed bills?

The Korean War began June 25, 1950 with the North Korean army’s invasion of South Korea. On July 27, 1953, the Korean Armistice Agreement was signed ending the war, now officially recognized as Armistice Day. At 10 a.m. that day, in Panmunjom, 18 official copies of the tri-language Korean Armistice Agreement were signed. The signing of the agreement marked the end of the longest negotiated armistice in history with 158 meetings spread over two years and 17 days.

Nice article but it doesn’t state the date on which to celebrate the Korean armistice. However, assume that it is celebrated on July 27th.

The Vets from the (forgotten war) are still being treated like second class citizens. Treatments go unresolved. The VA is giving them a pill and send them packing.

RUMOR or FACT the elements of the PACT act have been folded into the Gold Star Families resolution and that’s what we all should be watching. We were led to believe this was a done deal and now rumors are between abortion riders and 400 billion in non-veteran costs the Toxic bill is hung up in politics

Correction made. Thanks for the input, Jeff!

Need to make a correction..It has to be passed again by the senate before it goes to POTUS.

Thanks for trying. I believe California is one of only 5 States that taxes the retirement pay of veterans.
