this is a genuine attack on the Pentagon

Published on November 20, 2007 By danielost In Personal Computing

the Pentagon is going to sue wounded soldiers that can not finish their contract.

now this is wrong. president bush needs to fix this now. if he doesn't then the congress needs to fix it.

My 2 cents. If we want to start considering medical separations as contract fulfillment, then we need to change the terms of enlistment to reflect that.

As it stands the terms of enlistment don't promise it. The terms for bonii are clear : they are for the totality of time served on the contract. Dont serve the time, don't keep the money.

My personal feelings are tat if a soldier is medically chaptered for something resulting from armed conflict (not slipping in the gym at Balad) then instead of being medically seperated or barred they should simply be medically retired.

Frankly, despite my knee-jerk support for soldier issues, this story smells like bad meat with very little substance to it.

Agreed Greywar. It sounds like someone is trying to manufacture a "scandal" where none exists.
