Good...if you give your life serving in our Armed Forces your widow and kids should be taken care of.

No one gave my mother a million dollars when my Dad chose to stay with his crippled jet rather than let it crash into a populated area of Georgia.
She was 33 with 2 kids under 5 and 2 months pregnant.

The military did offer her an abortion.

She raised us on survivor benefits and banked the social security to pay for 3 college educations, no student loans.

I feel for the families and I understand what those kids face for the rest of their fatherless lives.

But this GoFundMe leaves a bad taste of greed masked as compassionate solicitation. A lot of military people die as heros, families do get by on survivor benefits, SS and whatever was prudently planned. Not all are selected as lottery winners.
