Priorities, priorities, priorities.

I despise the illegal lovers in government.

They say that this creates a more level ground for the civilian side

In other words, Tricare will strive to suck just a tiny bit less than Obamacare.

Yeah...and if I could find one each SFC John Turman, I would remove his sensitive parts for that very damned lie.

But since I was only 17 at the time (1969) and he was close to 40, I suspect he is dead, but that doesn't lessen my angst one bit when I hear this crap.

At least they waited a decent amount of time after Memorial Day.

I enlisted in 1971. I found that my recruiter was straightforward with me....after he found out that my dad had just retired from the USAF.

At that time it was. He did not lie. Congress changed the rules.

I wonder if anyone ever took it to the SCOTUS?

I know they did over the pension and they ruled that the contract you signed at the time of your first enlistment was what counted. Any changed that were made after that were not applicable.

Be nice if we could continue with TriCare rather then going on Medicare at 65. Now that is a travesty.
