Where it applies

Written for the jurisdictions listed here.

The officer. McPherson County's Veterans Services page lists Richard Cook, 308-636-2734, [email protected] - Logan County's Veterans Service Officer, whom the State's directory lists for McPherson County at the courthouse, 200 Anderson Street, Tryon, on Tuesdays from 8:00 a.m. to noon (see the Logan County office entry, which also serves McPherson County). The County Clerk records a DD 214 brought to the office. What the fund holds and pays. McPherson County's filed 2025-2026 budget's Veterans Aid Fund (1900) held $4,241.95 on July 1, 2023, July 1, 2024 and July 1, 2025, with no receipts and no levy, and paid nothing in either year. The 2025-2026 budget sets the whole $4,241.95 for medical, hospital and client services, as the 2024-2025 budget did, and no claim on the fund appears in the Board's claims of January 2025 to October 2026. Who qualifies. McPherson County posts no aid text. Section 80-102 lets the county veterans service committee - McPherson County's Veteran's Service Board, to which Wiley Fisher was reappointed to 2030 - aid a veteran, a spouse, a surviving spouse or a minor child in need; since LB1300 (Laws 2024, section 45) the veteran need only have served, been discharged honorable or general (under honorable conditions) or died in service, and lived a year in Nebraska and six months in the county. Apply through Mr. Cook on a Tuesday morning in Tryon, or ask the County Clerk, 308-587-2363. See the Nebraska entry on the county fund for the committee's discretion and the State's own aid fund.
