What benifits do purple heart recipients recieve?

It varies depending on your degree of disability disability. However, in most states, Purple Heart recipients receive free registration and/or licenses for their vehicles. In some states, PH recipients and/or their children receive free or reduced college education at state schools (I think Indiana or Illinois is completely free, I know NC is at an 80% reduction; I don't know about other states' specifics). Some private colleges offer this as well. If you are deemed disabled (not all PH recipients are), you will end up receiving disability pay from the VA (there are two types of Disability pay) and medical care. Sometimes, PH recipients get free/reduced admission to certain places (although a lot military get this anyway). And, I know this isn't official, but, my husband has gotten out of a lot of speeding tickets when the policemen saw the PH license plate.
