There are several here <waves hand>.

If you have a question post away. I am one and there are many more.

I think you'll find that service varies from area to area.

I am not retired from the military but I do have an honorable discharge from the Army. I am using the V.A. medical (thank God for that). That is how I found out that I had sleep apnea & got my machine.
