The 250,000 is a life insurance policy paid for by soldiers. The 12 grand is the compensation from the government. It used to be 6 pre Bush.
COmpared to the millions the government is giving to the family of 9/11 victims it is piss.

Thanks for the clarification -- I thought the 250,000 was standard compensation from the government, and I didn't realize it was a soldier-paid life insurance policy. And you're right that it is nothing compared to what the 9/11 victims got.
