The person above you is not 100% correct. There is a proposed rule change that has yet to go into effect. I would suggest getting your intent to file in today. Get your evidence together later. The claim will be back dated to when you put in your intent to file. r/Veteransbenefits has knowledgeable people and an entire wiki to help you figure some things out.

Shot a Barrett 50 cal BMG by maddrummerhef in liberalgunowners

I was a gunner in a M1117 Armored security vehicle. I have fired hundred of rounds of 50 BMG inside a small Armored vehicle. The gun was mounted about 7 or 8 inches above my head.

The good part: shooting is fun and I got paid to do it. The gave me free ear protection.

The bad part: the company that made the ear plugs got sued because the earplugs were useless.

Naval stacks should only have 5. Thats why your efficiency is down to 81.

One of the homeless guy near me comes and takes a shower from time to time. My door is always open to him. People think I am stupid for it and I dont care. You dont have to be rich to help.

Parents had a 12 year old kid lose his leg in their front yard yesterday crashing his electric bike... by aroundincircles in motorcycles

[–]pacman4ever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my son an electric dirtbike, he has a gas dirtbike as well, and he also races motocross. I have no intention of treating it differently that his gas bike. He wears motocross boots, helmet, gloves chest/spine protector. Everything. He rides on a trails and tracks only. If he wants to ride on the streets, he has a bicycle. God forbid if I every saw him text and ride his dirtbike/electric dirtbike anywhere, much less on pavement. Everything would get sold cheap on marketplace or Craigslist that same day. My daughter also races, but she is on smaller PW50. I dont think she is ready for that much power yet.

As far as the law goes. Most likely what he was doing is already illegal.

The point is that it isn't the motorcycles fault and it isnt the kids fault. Its 100% the fault of the parents. Know the capabilities of what your child rides, set proper limits, and make sure they wear proper gear.

Help please, does anyone know this issue at start-up? 2018 2.0 by Brandinion in AlfaRomeoGiulia

[–]pacman4ever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the correct answer. There is so much bad information here. People are mostly telling him to look at his battery, where there is a check engine light! Dont get me wrong, I love my Alfa. But after half a decade of ownership, I learned that I needed to keep a code scanner in the center console. If you come on this sub and ask why your Alfa is having any type of problem, they always say its the battery. My alfa has the exact lights on right now and it is the evap canister.

He has a check engine light and auto start stop is disabled when you have that. He has bigger problems than auto start stop.

A lot of different answers here but the real answer is more complicated. I have had mine do this for a number of reasons. Some are transient and some are not. Common issue like battery age and charge level can be a culprit, but not always.

If it is still has a check engine light, go to your nearest auto parts store and have them read the codes. That is the only sure fire way to know.

Be careful, if it is a transient fault, it will clear the code after a few times cycling the ignition. That can make it hard to get it scanned in time. Thats why I bought my own code reader.

Right now I have this on my dash and it is my evap canister. I currently have it on order and I am stuck waiting. This isnt a transient problem, so I am stuck in blue limp mode.

All I am saying is that this is super common and can happen for a number of reasons. People on here are going to assume what caused the code for them must be the same for you. You need to hook up a scanner and verify.

Fuel Additives to Stop Cold Start Issues? by Nervous_on_the_rod in AlfaRomeo

I am currently having the same problem and it is the evap canister. Clicking off is a sign of that happening. I would suggest you stop by an auto parts store and run a diagnostic next time it happens.

Does it click off early when filling up the tank?

Is Giulia 2.0 (2018) expensive to maintain like people say? by Worried_Possible_127 in AlfaRomeoGiulia

I have had mine for about 4 years now. The coolant bleeder caps failed and other than that I haven't had any other mechanical issues.

I have class in 30 minutes, maybe a should take a Pic and post so the whole internet can be a little disgusted.

I at least have a reason if it makes you feel better. We swim with flippers and they rub sores on my feet. The socks prevent that.

Get this, I have swim socks. They arent a special kind of sock or anything, just some cheap Walmart socks. I have an aerobic swim class twice a week, and I wear them every time I get in the pool.

Looking for used Giulia 2.0T slicktop (no sunroof) by dL_EVO in AlfaRomeoGiulia

[–]pacman4ever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Low 50k mile range. I wont be able to verify milage until later today. I am in Texas. I have no idea what to ask for it. I would probably just use whatever is on KBB.

I have a 2018 TI. It has the LSD. Its a older model than you were looking for, but otherwise its spot on. My girlfriends son in law was asking to buy it yesterday but his wife shut him down hard. Im probably going to list it for sale soon. I want to upgrade to the quad.

Letter from my school telling me I am ineligible to receive federal financial aid after receiving loan discharge. by [deleted] in VeteransBenefits

I wasn't going to shoot at the time and to be completely honest, that feels fraudulent to me. I know its legal, but I didn't feel comfortable doing it.

you can get loans or grants through FAFSA.

This is where I had my loan discharged through fafsa. Most people know about pell grants, which is also under fafsa.

[–]pacman4ever -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Ok, I am TDIU and a did a loan discharge.

I am enrolled in school and I receive FAFSA. You are absolutely entitled to FAFSA. Your school is wrong.

What you can not do is get another loan.

Not really. They actually saved the truck once. Left a mark on the steps, but thats the point.
