This is what gets me.

Brandon's discharge from the Army entitles him to lifelong VA disability benefits of about $6,500 a month — nearly half of which goes to Blaine for providing care. Another $500 goes to a friend who keeps an eye on Brandon while Blaine works three nights a week stocking shelves at Safeway.

That's all your service is worth. $6500 per month. That's what you get for losing control of your body. The President gets a cushy pension and perquisites of office, and you get $6,500 a month.
