Nearly half the MNARNG's 1st Brigade Combat Team, 34th Infantry Division, found they weren't eligible for full education benefits under the G.I. Bill, despite being one of the longest-serving units in Iraq. The unit returned home from a 22-month mobilization that included 16 months in combat as part of the surge force in Iraq.
Army SGT Benjamin Hattan, a two-time Purple Heart recipient who was denied education benefits because his deployment orders were written for up to 729 days. The Montgomery GI Bill requires 730 days of service to quality for full benefits.
