GI Bill pay for Gear?

[CptTightPants21]

Hello, I joined this years ago, but fell out of diving. Can't really dive in the sandbox... Anyway, I'm retired now, 100% disabled and am looking to get my Dive Master Certification through SDI. I just completed my advanced diver certification today and want to start purchasing my own gear, but have the GI Bill pay for it, the GEAR. I know it pays for the certifications, which I am glad, but I am getting conflicting answers on the gear, so I'm wondering if anyone here has the correct answer, or could point me in the right direction. Thank you!

I know a person who bought basically their entire scuba set up - tanks, regs, and a rebreather through their GI benefits. Maybe it requires a shop that knows how to put the correct wording on the forms, but it 100% can be done.
