Get on the phone and talk to VA representatives. I'm pretty sure they can help you with any questions you have regarding VA benefits.
If Glenn wasn't active or reserve member of the military at the time of his death, there's not much material benefit for her.
Get on the phone or a chat window with them.

I think you are right :)


My girlfriend also didn't inherit anything from Glenn, which is find odd, he was still married to Pia (and was on good terms) and he loved Pearl, she was only 3 when he died. I find it odd, that when he died, both Pia and Pearl didn't receive anything. He was on a veteran pension up until his last breath.

Also, what are the rules for a veteran with a wife and child? Isn't there child support in US?

How old is your girlfriend?

There is Veteran benefits. She can enroll in VA Healthcare which is very good; she can receive GI Bill for her college or professional education.
