Porsche-o-Phile,

The military knew what they signed up for, do you? Part of it is that one may be killed, maimed, injured, or come down with an illness. Another part of the contract is that the service member will be taken care according to the law, as in the CFR.

What Shaun is riling about is bureaucrats not following either the spirit or intention of the law. What the vets and current military want is for the government to uphold their end of the contract and law. Period.

A good part of the problem is compounding of medical conditions by not addressing them up front. I know of more than a few cases that the Marine or soldier would probably been returned to full duty status, but due to incompetence/indifference is no longer a viable asset but a liability (except the dead).

S/F, FOG
