Never did get repaid for that till I got discharged and years later got a letter from The General Accounting Office wanting it back....

I'm guessing that by then you had peeked behind the curtain, and either tossed the letter, or told the GAO to pound sand.

When will people realize that governments are NOT their friend?

GAO and the IRS both work for the same people...I was working for Boeing at the time and it wouldn't have been prudent to rile the powers that be.....

Curt LeMay was still CG of SAC at the time and even though he was a hard a$$ he never let others give his troops a hard time...

So I fired off a letter to him...Don't really know if he ever read it, but shortly afterwards got another letter from the GAO apoligizing for bothering me....

.....Westy.....

Good point Loddy. God never intended for man to be governed but what does HE know?? Westy: You talk the same about the Korean war as my American cousin that just died a few months ago. He suffered greatly in that war. In fact, he was a very young man but came home with grey hair!!
