What do you call it when BOTH the VA and Social Security says you're totally disabled?  Two totally different systems with totally different ways of determining "disability."  With the VA you get percentages of disability.  Mine ended up totaling 250% BTW, but the VA only pays you at the 100% rate.  With the SSA you're either totally disabled or not disabled, no "degrees" of disability.  

I'm not "milking"anything!  I did take advantage of everything I qualified for under the systems as they are currently being administered.  Why not?  I payed for the SSA benefits, so I earned what they "approved me for; and I dam sure earned what the VA approved me for as well.
