Agreed, and let's see a so called "Commanding Officer" relieved from his command.Argh! Makes me want to choke a b****! ....
Did you know the US Senate has it's own barbershop, complete with barbers that are paid $80,000 per year? That's a few meals right there.Thankfully cooler heads prevailed and it was reopened today.
I wonder what how many meal vouchers one of the many vacations would pay for?
You and me both. To short change those who have given so much... Contemptible!I confess, I have not yet joined VFW or American Legion. I guess I need to get off my ass and do so, although I am a memeber of DAV and another very branch and community specific national organization, but it isn 't large enough to carry much of a voter based voice. Doesn't stop us from bitchin' though
My wife's Grandfather was a WWII vet and held National and State Office in American Legion. Their lives were centered on the organization and it's activities for years on end. I rekon I'm about the last bearer to carry that Standard forward in the family.
VFW and Legion has been greatly influenced by the current administration also.; To the point of pretty much being useless.I confess, I have not yet joined VFW or American Legion.

Who's idea was this in the first place? If this decision was overturned, great, but you know what? Somebody thought it was a good idea and that person needs to know it's NOT OK. They need to be removed... period.
So, does anyone know how to go about finding out who was responsible for this in the first place?
Was this measure voted on? How do we get the voting record to see who supported it?
When irresponsible people are told to be responsible and cut fat they react in irresponsible ways. That is the first sign of who meets not to be laid off but fired.Probably the same one's that said we couldn't afford to protect our ambassador in Libya. Saw how that went - no one got fired their either.
I have been to Walter Reed...best care I ever got and there are incredible people doing work few could.If you have ever been to Walter reed you would know it is filled with civilian government employees.
Many not only do not like service members they hate them.
They come to work each day with one thing one their mind ...do as little as they can.
There is the rare exception but they never last.
