Some are. Many are not. Just because are in a combat zone, doesn’t mean you should receive Imminent Danger Pay.

I do not know when the last time you have visited Kuwait, but to receive Imminent Danger Pay while being in that country is a joke.

Second part to that would be that just because you dropped in to say hello for one day, doesn’t mean you should be entitled to a full month of Imminent Danger Pay.

Does that clear it up for you?

How is Kuwait a combat zone?

[TheGunny]

Ill tell you what clears it up for me soldier, is that it is abundantly clear that you don't know what in the hell you are talking about! A) there are no FOB’s in Kuwait, B) Almost EVERY so called FOB in AFG is subject to indirect fire, and C) the determination of what area is or isnt a “combat zone” is way the hell above your pay grade. I never said that the “pro-rated” approach wasnt a good one, I think it is. Let me offer you a bit of education...a rifle slinging grunt isnt the only hazardous endevor in a combat zone! There are plenty of support roles and many in aviation that make the mission even possible...that is before grunt shit like yourself attempts to kick in a door! Those guys (again) are sitting in those FARP’s and FOB’s living and dying for each other and for their country. Dont break your arm patting yourself on the back for doing your f’ing job!
