If I read pension cuts one more time I’m going to scream. It’s a one percent change in the rate of increase beginning in 2015.

It includes disabled and survivor benefits, Hegel and McCain are making noise to shut down stateside commissaries (effecting AD folks) and booting retirees, disabled and spouses out of TRICARE...

For the average guy who doesn't think its a big deal never wore combat boots.

That's still a cut from what we were supposed to get. Don't fall for government bafflegab.

Get ready to scream. It is a cut in their future pensions. By reducing their COLA by 1% they are reducing the pensions until they reach 65.
