Like the guy I know who was offered early retirement from the Air Force during a drawdown. And is getting disability also. Because while serving, he hurt his knee......playing basketball.
Yes, there are plenty of military retirees I consider leeches.
Well, I was being snarky and facetious. I would NEVER accuse a veteran of being a leech.
I guess there are some.
But when someone wants to rant at those retiring with a government pension - I guess they also include military retirees?
My Dad used to semi-jokingly boast he was a “triple dipper”. He collected US Army retirement, Civil Service retirement and Social Security.
