Clarification on Eligibility for Muster-Out Pay for Veterans Discharged Before Pearl Harbor Incident, 1944-02-03

The letter is a response to a query about whether veterans discharged before the Pearl Harbor incident are eligible for mustering-out pay. The writer clarifies that veterans discharged between December 7, 1941, and February 3, 1944, are eligible for mustering-out pay, as well as those discharged after the passing of the law. The writer explains the confusion between veterans discharged before the law was passed and veterans discharged before Pearl Harbor. The writer also mentions that the decision made by the Tulsa office regarding eligibility for mustering-out pay is not in line with the law. The letter ends with an offer to assist further if needed.
