The Chapman University of Military Law and its associated AMVETS Legal Clinic are blowing the whistle on what they say is an injustice set to be perpetrated on 157 Air Force majors on the last day of November.

?The Obama administration has ordered massive reductions in forces, resulting in many officers who are near retirement being involuntarily separated without retirement or medical benefits,? explained institute director Maj. Kyndra Rotunda.

The Department of Defense specifies that service members within six years of retirement normally would be retained and allowed to retire on time with benefits, unless extenuating circumstances exist such as disciplinary issues.

According to lawyers at Chapman and the AMVETS Legal Clinic, the Air Force has deviated from the six-year protection ?without any legal authority.?..............<SNIP>

Yep. He loves to send them all around the world and put them in war after war, and he will happily screw them afterwards. That man is the lowest of the low

He's getting out of Iraq and has only sent all of 100 troops to Africa. He hasn't gotten us bogged down anywhere.

You don't want to win? And we're hardly bogged down. With OBL dead and he Taliban of of power our objectives are complete. We already won and are just ring to stabilize he country now. Add in everything I said before and we're good.

That said we need to get of of Afghanistan, we're risking a nuke war staying.

But it never would have gone nuclear.

The Russian Federation has a 1st strike policy and Putin is crazy. Besides, we outclass them conventionally by such a large margin that the nukes would be their only way of winning.
