I wish she got more money for this; she deserved it.

According to the article, she is going to get more, for some kind of health claim. For example, she wants counseling for her daughter. Here's my counseling: This won't happen again. Just thank God that the bomb didn't explode. Now can I be paid for this post?

While some compensation is appropriate, I certainly would not consider it appropriate or patriotic to ask for more money than the actual financial loses. Something tells me that the Air Force would have done this without her having to get a lawyer. (Yea, I know, the Air Force may have advised her to get a lawyer, so that they wouldn't be blamed later for cheating her. I personally would not have taken that advice, but that's me.)

I did not say that she should've asked for more. If I were the autorities involved, I would offer more, however, without being asked.
