Selected Reserve, and/or the Reserve Educational Assistance Program (REAP), he or

resulting from the line of duty death of a parent.

- A child may qualify for up to 36 months of benefits under the Fry Scholarship Program,
and possibly another 36 months of benefits of the Post 9/11 GI Bill based on their
