Then I'm afraid you're not eligible for the Veterans Pension program.
Fine then. Can you at least tell me how I figure out if I served under a eligible wartime period?
Gladly. Under current law, we recognize the following wartime periods to decide eligibility for VA pension benefits: Mexican Border period May 9, 1916, to April 5, 1917, for Veterans who served in Mexico, on its borders, or in adjacent waters.
