This is nothing but a not so subtle attempt to bash the military and by association the president.

Really? I saw it as a wounded soldier being blackmailed to pay up $700 OR ELSE he won't get out of the army.

Yes, you are right...but I also agree that now that he's spoken to the press, he'll get his $700. Government bureaucracy at its finest.

So don't get out of the Army for a few more months. What's the big deal? His monthly pay for a few months extra service surely is more than $700. Stay in a few months, let them clear it up, if they don't then he's got the extra pay to cover it. As a convalescing soldier, he won't have any duties.
