I USED to be a Marine. I left because I knew this kind of shit went on, and I didn't want it happening to me.
What strikes me particularly hard is the fella who said he can't be a police officer now. As that is what I've wanted to do since I've been in kindergarten, it would kill me not to be able to do it.
Un fucking believable, lets put all politicians in the war and make them pay money back. Not to mention that we have celebs and football/baseball players making millions of dollars a year, but our troops risk their lives for shit money.
I was in the Navy for six years and I must say that our troops deserve alot better than our so-called Government will ever offer. Fucking Pathetic

BEING IN THE MILITARY MYSELF I THINK THIS IS TOTAL BULLSHIT. IF I TAKE A FUCKING BULLET FOR MY COUNTRY AND I LOSE SOME TYPE OF BODILY FUCNTION I'M GONNNA SEE THAT MY CONTRACT WAS FULLFILLED NO MATTER HOW MUCH TIME I'VE GOT LEFT . THIS IS SO FUCKED UP. THIS KINDA SHIT MAKES ME MAD THAT I EVER JOINED.
I approve of your sentiment... But please stop yelling.
I think AppleButterLove definitely has the right to yell about this!

Strangely enough, if a football/baseball player gets hurt on the field, they are entitled to keep their signing bonus. Third string running backs are treated better than US soldiers.
