3. *Sigh* It never ends the military and vets are always getting screwed.
Monkeyman:

From the wife of an Army SFC, thanks for always posting news about the military and vets. It's greatly appreciated.

I just wish more people in the military and vets would learn the Rep. party is the party that is always the one in the back screwing them over and over again. I think the times are changing some though.
