Currently, education benefits for veterans that earned those benefits as enlistment incentives prior to the post 9/11 Montgomery G.I. Bill, expire 10 years after the service member's last discharge or release from active duty. Service members who receive education benefits today enjoy the ability to not only take their time achieving their educational goals because those benefits no longer expire, but they are also allowed to pass those benefits along to their children should they not use them. Many service members who left the military prior to 9/11 but served several years leading up to that event to include Operation Desert Storm are essentially left out. Life happens, most veterans start working immediately after leaving service. Their education benefits shouldn't expire.
