The letter is from James R. Jones, a Member of Congress, responding to Stanley P. Tullos' support for H.R. 1039, a bill that would allow disabled military retirees to receive both retirement pay and VA disability benefits. Tullos expresses concern about the treatment of military retirees and advocates for equal treatment in terms of benefits. He also questions why military retirees are treated differently from other federal employees. Tullos urges Jones to look into the matter and asks for his support in addressing the issue.
