VA Sponsors Training For All Disabled Vets

Veterans disabled since World War II, Whether in combat service, routine duty, training, or maneuvers, will receive the same vocational training benefits given to World War II veterans, according to a bill signed Friday by President Truman.

Heretofore available only to a small number of veterans of the Korean War, the benefits will continue "for the duration of the emergency" and for nine years thereafter. Veterans will be given school or on-the-job training, with all tuition, supplies, and a subsistence allowance paid by the Veterans Administration.
