Hearing aid advice

After spending nearly 17 years on the back of a howitzer, my hearing sucks.
If you are a vet, and you're enrolled in the VA health care system, you can get hearing aids at a low or no cost. I have a set of Phonak hearing aids that came from the VA. Pretty sweet setup too. I can pair them with my iPhone and listen to music as well as a blue tooth for my phone.
Be careful of cheaper hearing aids. I had a "inexpensive" set that would pick up airplane radio traffic when I was near an airport close to where I used to work. In this area, the 1 wed of the month, all of the emergency services would do a test at noon, and I caught that traffic too.
If you're a vet, it would be to your benefit to look into it.
