Question for hiring managers

For context: I (29m), (soon separating from the military) am building a resume and I have seen conflicting opinions and statements on resume cover sheets. Some jobs I've seen require a cover sheet on the resume, some don't. I've talked to a couple hiring managers I know personally, one who loves them, one who doesnt care/and won't read them, which leads to my question. Do cover sheets matter when applying to work/ in today's workforce?

Edit:Thank you all for your answers to this question, all inputs are appreciated!

Red aggressive bug that chased my son (virginia beach area)

This little guy was under a storage crate I had outside and started chasing me and my son. When I killed a few what looked like animal blood came out of it. Looking for an ID. It looks like some sort of mite or tick but not sure.
