Why We Are Reducing Your Checks
The amount of (6) Social Security checks is partly based on (7) (8) military service in World War II. We cannot use this service to figure benefit amounts
if the VA uses it to pay a pension. Beginning (9) , the VA is using this military service to pay a pension, so we must reduce the Social
Security checks.
