Re: veterans tax exemption info
Yup, this is what I was told
Q. What does the law mean by a "period of war?" A. The exemption is available to veterans who served on active duty in the U.S. armed services during the Persian Gulf Conflict (on or after August 2, 1990); Vietnam War (December 22, 1961-May 7, 1975); Korean War (June 27, 1950-January 31, 1955); World War II (December 7, 1941-December 31, 1946); World War I (April 6, 1917 - November 11, 1918); the Mexican Border Period (May 9, 1916-April 5, 1917) or the Spanish-American War (April 21, 1898 - July 4, 1902). The dates of the Korean and Vietnam Wars and the Persian Gulf Conflict are prescribed in the State law, while the dates of the other wars are derived from Federal law. Also eligible for the exemption are certain individuals who served during World War II either in the American Field Service under United States Armies and the Untied States Army Groups or as a flight crew and aviation ground support employee of American Airlines' contract with the Air Transport Command.
