Did you know there might be life-changing benefits and financial advantages you're missing out on simply because you never asked, “What am I entitled to as a veteran?” In this episode of Cut to the Chase: Podcast, Gregg is joined by a very special guest—his father, Max Goldfarb. A Korean War veteran, practicing attorney of 67 years, and the self-proclaimed “King of Collection” in Florida, Max shares his journey navigating VA benefits, disability ratings, and advocating for himself and other vets. From his frontline experiences during the Korean War to receiving full VA disability and benefits, Max offers helpful advice for veterans who may not be aware of the support they're entitled to. Whether you're a veteran, have one in your family, or just love a story filled with wisdom, resilience, and humor, this episode is for you. What you'll learn in this episode: Why so many veterans, especially from older wars, are unaware of their full VA benefits Max's journey from Korean War frontlines to discovering and successfully claiming disability ratings (PTSD, tinnitus, and physical injury) How to navigate application forms, administrative appeals, and advocate-driven compensation increases Why you need legal advocates to boost disability ratings and win appeals, especially when records have been lost or destroyed Using disability status for property tax relief in Florida—step-by-step from partial to full exemption The VA hospital experience: Debunking myths with real positive reporting Funeral & Memorial Benefits: What military families should know Honor Flight: A special resource for veterans to visit D.C. war memorials (and why you should apply!) Practical tips for lawyers advising veteran clients: Filing VA claims, documenting experiences, and finding advocacy support Key Takeaways: Don't Assume Veterans Know Their Rights: Many older veterans, especially from earlier wars, aren't aware of the full spectrum of benefits available. Initiate the conversation. Encourage Clients to Apply (or Appeal): Disability claims can be filed (and retroactively increased) decades after discharge, even if service records have been lost. Use Advocates: Connect clients with dedicated veteran's advocates to maximize their claims—these professionals can make or break a complex case. Stay Resourceful: If crucial documentation is missing, alternative evidence (doctor's letters, witness statements) can still win the day. Leverage Local Laws: Understand and utilize state-specific tax exemptions and statutory advantages for disabled veterans. Stay in Touch With Real-World Impact: Inform clients about programs like Honor Flight and funeral benefits—they're deeply meaningful and legally relevant. Make Your Firm Veteran-Friendly: Share resources (like VA forms and advocate contacts) directly on your website or in client communications. Familiarize yourself with VA Form 21-526EZ for disability compensation and keep a list of trusted VA advocates for client referrals.

   Join us for an insightful conversation with retired Army LTC Darcie Greuel, RN an esteemed Army nurse and recipient of the Henry M. Jackson Foundation's Hero of Military Medicine Award. Darcie recounts her remarkable journey from enlisting in the Army Reserve during high school to becoming a commissioned officer in the Army Nurse Corps. She shares her motivations rooted in patriotism and the desire to fund her college education and reflects on overcoming her initial fears of the medical field to discover a lifelong passion for nursing. A pivotal moment in her career was her 2003 deployment to Afghanistan, where she served at the 452 Combat Support Hospital, profoundly influencing her future career decisions.       This episode also explores Darcie's transformative experiences on humanitarian missions to remote areas in third-world countries. Hear about the profound impact of providing medical care to populations with little to no prior healthcare access and the deep sense of fulfillment from these missions. Darcie shares personal anecdotes about overcoming language barriers, delivering essential health education, and how these experiences prepared military medics for deployment and wartime scenarios. The importance of global health engagements for their educational value and the purpose they provide is underscored throughout the conversation.      Additionally, Darcie reflects on her military leadership and training, the transition from enlisted service to commissioned officer, and her experiences leading a COVID-19 response team. She discusses the challenges faced by veterans transitioning from military service and the vital support systems in place to aid them. Darcie's participation in the Honor Flight program and her reflections on a 40-year career in the Army Reserve offer listeners a comprehensive look at the rewards and challenges of a military nursing career. Tune in to hear about the lasting impact of teamwork, leadership, and the honor of serving one's country.   Chapters: (00:04) Military Nursing Career Highlights (13:25) Global Health Engagements for the Military (20:28) Military Officer Leadership and Training (34:46) Military COVID-19 Response and Leadership (44:15) Veteran Transition Support and Resources (49:56) Honor Flight Program Experiences and Advice (57:51) Military Career Reflections and Legacy   Chapter Summaries: (00:04) Military Nursing Career Highlights   Retired Army nurse Darcie Greuel shares her journey from joining the military to her deployment in Afghanistan.   (13:25) Global Health Engagements for the Military    Participating in humanitarian missions to remote areas provides transformative experiences, prepares for deployment, and offers unique learning opportunities.   (20:28) Military Officer Leadership and Training    Deployment enhanced skills, bridged knowledge gaps, commanded a unit, and emphasized effective delegation and leadership.   (34:46) Military COVID-19 Response and Leadership    Transitioning from VA to COVID-19 response team, leading 452nd Field Hospital, and collaboration with civilian medical entities.   (44:15) Veteran Transition Support and Resources    Challenges faced by transitioning veterans, need for support, connecting with VA services and community, and program manager's experiences.   (49:56) Honor Flight Program Experiences and Advice    Night shift nursing, Honor Flight program, connecting with veterans, lasting bonds, honoring service, intergenerational connections.   (57:51) Military Career Reflections and Legacy    Military service offers education, leadership training, and unique missions, with a sense of pride and camaraderie, and support from colleagues and family.   Take Home Messages: Patriotism and Education Drive Military Service:    - Joining the military can be motivated by a sense of patriotism and the practical need to fund one's education. These initial motivations can lead to discovering unexpected career passions, such as nursing. Humanitarian Missions as Training Grounds:    - Participating in humanitarian missions in underserved and remote regions offers invaluable training for military medical personnel. These experiences not only provide critical medical care to those in need but also prepare medics for the realities of deployment and combat scenarios. Leadership and Transition:    - Transitioning from an enlisted service member to a commissioned officer involves significant training and a shift in responsibilities. Effective delegation, planning, and leadership are crucial skills that are developed through various command roles and military experiences. Veteran Support Systems:    - The transition from military service to civilian life can be challenging for veterans, particularly those who are medically retired or discharged. Comprehensive support systems, including collaboration between military units and the Department of Veterans Affairs, are essential for providing resources, education, and care to transitioning veterans. Honoring Military Service:    - Programs like the Honor Flight are vital in recognizing and celebrating the service of veterans from different wars. These experiences foster lasting connections between generations of military service members and provide much-needed recognition, especially for those who may not have received it upon returning home.   Episode Keywords: Military Nursing, Army Reserve, Deployment, Afghanistan, Humanitarian Missions, Global Health, Military Officer, Leadership, COVID-19 Response, Veteran Transition, Honor Flight, Military Career, Army Nurse Corps, Medical Care, Military Medicine, Military Deployment, Military Training, Military Leadership, Military Veteran Support, Military Legacy   Hashtags: #MilitaryNursing, #ArmyReserve, #Deployment, #Afghanistan, #HumanitarianMissions, #GlobalHealth, #MilitaryOfficer, #Leadership, #COVID-19Response, #VeteranTransition, #HonorFlight, #MilitaryCareer, #ArmyNurseCorps, #MedicalCare, #MilitaryMedicine, #MilitaryDeployment, #MilitaryTraining, #MilitaryLeadership, #MilitaryVeteranSupport, #MilitaryLegacy   Honoring the Legacy and Preserving the History of Military Medicine The WarDocs Mission is to honor the legacy, preserve the oral history, and showcase career opportunities, unique expeditionary experiences, and achievements of Military Medicine.
