Retired military or military families or even prior military with GOOD time in service with school aged children or spouses that want to go back to school/college? (I'm not sure if there is an age limit for the children or not, haven't found anything on it as of yet)
Those of you who are, have you seen the lastest and greatest about the GI Bill? If you haven't...PM me and I will send you the lastest news on it. It's GREAT news and something we have been waiting for for quite some time.

Yes we have heard about that one. DH used the prior GI bill to go to seminary 7 years ago. We are really hoping and praying that our son, who is active duty Navy will someday take advantage of it and go to college. Our girls have all finished college. Just DD#3 working on her Masters but is finishing that at the private school she graduated from cause they have a great program for her and she was able to start this last spring before she graduated. I'm not sure if I could handle DH going back for a Doctorate though, His masters was tough on both of us!!!!!
My daughter who is currently in Iraq is almost finished with her Masters, only has 1 exam left, still wants to get her teaching credentials, maybe she will be able to take advantage of it. Does it apply to reservists?

I don't know. Not sure.
You'd have to ask about that....I'm sure there's some sort of stipulation in there since many of the reservists are being activated for active duty.
