Looming Deadline Nears for Millions of US Veterans, Surviving Dependents – NBC Bay Area

Written by on May 30, 2023

A Memorial Day vigil in the East Bay remembered veterans who lost their lives in the most recent wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Dozens of people, including veterans and the dependent survivors of the fallen service men and women, attended the event.

It also served as a reminder of what veterans and surviving dependents will face if the U.S. defaults on its debt in the next week.    

It was a ceremony for the souls represented by 2,500 crosses adorning a Lafayette Hillside --  a constant reminder of war’s heavy toll on . . .
