Commissary And Exchange Privileges

[Kelly]

I have started a petition to forward to our elected officials to urge them to get off their sixs and get this legislation passed. Please sign this petition and let your fellow vets know the petition is out there. Thanks

12 People Signed it?

I won't because it's not going anywhere (the Bill in Congress). It's one of those things you do as a Congress Person to say "Look What I am doing for our Vets". But it goes no where. That was the plan all along.

Better efford would be supporting giving disabled combat vets their retirement if less than 20 years. That bill is worth supporting.

Space A Travel is a Big Joke. It's cheaper to just fly Southwest or such and be done with it.

Commissary can be beat offbase on lots of items.

Now if 12 people wrote their Congress Critters (Not Email)....

12 people can make a impact!

Online Junk has no impact such as this.

That has to be one of the stupidest replys ever. Only 12, I dont know how your math works, but mine starts at 1 and goes up. Would you like to sign it where there is a 100 or a thousand. Check back later for a higher count. This petition was started a little over a week ago what do you expect.

I think the negative side has been covered already. Sign the damn thing or STFU. You wont sign, but ask for others to back something else, theres Polish logic hard at work.

Thanks to all who signed to this point. We know the bennies arent the greatest thing going, but it's a start. Most may never use any of the facilities but being recognized for the sacrafices would be appreciated by many. One day out of the year (Veterans Day) is such a crock. One day out of 365 someone does something for Vets and these days it's a small parade and day off. The day off is more important to most then the fact that people had to die to get that day. It's a crying shame.

Thanks again.

Typical crap from the lying retirees.

First of all, none of these benifits were ever authorized by congress. Secondly, why should a mail clerk in the military draw beneifts after a mere 20 years that a mailman with the Post Office doesn't get after 40 years?

Third, if anyone is deserving of such benefits it is the combat injured veteren regardless of the amount of time he served.

A man can see more in one day in combat than these retired turds see in 20 years.

Why don't you tell us retirees how you realy feel....; B)

That is the way things are headed. Soon they will try and cancel that day all together.

Most feel that saying thanks for your service should be sufficient compensation for living the rest of your life with medical problems. I say, KISS MY A$$ to that. Either everyone do time in the service or recognize those that have. Way too many Americans are content on saying "thanks" once a year and feeling like that is showing enough support. They can kiss my six as well. Sorry to vent.
