Re: Subject: Military Paid too much?
Whitetop, you are correct to point out the additional benefits over base pay. Where I have seen serious problem is with reservists, who often are leaving behind a family and a full set of bills along with their civilian paycheck. It can be a real hardship to cover all expenses while called up on active duty.
It's not a perfect world, they did volunteer, but it can be very tough for them.
Sam, my best wishes and Godspeed to your son, I know you will be praying everyday for his safe return - I pray that your prayers are answered and all ends well for you and your family.
-Sam
