Hi, I would like to inquire about Military Bases & Military Housing Program. 1.) Are there any place in the Philippines that has Military Bases & Housing Program near each other? 2.) If yes, what are the places and how near are they to each other (km)? 3.) Also, what are the scope of people that are called veterans? Are they only the people that fought in the old wars like WW2 or Korean War or if a military soldier retired they can be called a veteran regardless of the year of service? 4.) I HAVE MORE QUESTION but there is a text limit.
