I've followed this case and although I am sypathetic to it I also see the reality of it. If one is married and subsisting off VA disability with his or her spouse it seems equitable for her to share in that benefit even after divorce as long as she is unremarried. Disabled Veterans have no problem with spouses sharing health benefits while married etc. Of course it's all nonsense anyway, I don't see how even single veterans can exist on a disabilty pension much less dividing it with an ex. Life sucks and gets worse for the disabled.There's just no easy way for them to exist. I personally think we owe them more, but I don't make the laws for this country.
