If you contribute 6% traditional 401k, and 6% Roth as well, which gets matched?! Guessing it doesn't matter in the end...

It doesn't matter, but the match will go into a traditional 401k because it can't be taxed if you don't receive it.

401k gets the match. And it does matter. 401k uses tax free cash thus it will make more money compared to a similar Roth that had its funds taxed. 100 bucks in 401k that makes 10% gets, $10 of growth. Whereas Roth would have the 100 taxed at say 30%, thus $70 Roth would only make $7.

And that doesn't even include the company match to 401k

You contribute a percent based on gross income. So if I contribute 6% of a 100k salary I'm getting $6k in my account either way. Only difference is one is pre-tax and one is post-tax. The actual amount in the account is the same.

I have been considering going back to school but I left active duty 15 years ago and my Post 9/11 expired this summer.

Either way, I'm curious if anyone would know why I only received 25 months of education benefits. I was 100% active for 4 years, 3 deployments to Iraq, honorable discharge etc. And wondering if there is any way to extend my benefits and get the 36-48 months that seems to be standard.
