Our Military deserves just compensation for putting their lives on the line each and every day.
Our boys are sitting ducks for death, especially the ones on the front lines.
The compensation should be increased by a minimum of 15%!
During war time enlisted members should receive an annual bonus of up to $25k and officers should receive an annual bonus of $50k.
The US is a super power with extensive resources. Its a no brainer that US Military Members should be guaranteed a slice of the ever illusive all American Dream.

I am outraged that our Military spouses are returning to us as damaged goods. Military Members are suffering from a range of disorders including post traumatic and passive aggressive personality disorders.
They return to us maimed or they have been 'changed' by the strains of their patriotic service and are no longer able to exist as loving, caring, Supportive spouses but instead what we are receiving in return is cold, Empty shells of the people who we once knew and loved!.
That's if we're lucky. Some of our Military spouses are returning in body bags due to casualties of this war!.

We live with these stress disorders each and every day.
Our spouses are being affected by the devastating effects of war, anxiety and separation.
The US Military needs to be accountable providing funding, Compensation and care to Military Members and the families.
Typically we see the Military putting 'spin' on the real problems and covering up the facts as a matter of policy.

Every single senior officer has retired and spoken out against the US Military and its policy.
I feel these members should speak up while on active duty and be guaranteed the freedom from reprisal or the blacklisting system that silences them, Scares them or forces them into retirement for not going along with the programme.

We must get rid of this old boy network.
It will save lives, Increase strategy success as well as lead to higher rates of troop retention and job satisfaction.
We need more women and minorities in command, PERIOD.
And not just on the fields in war time when they are at great risk of getting injured or killed off.

I don't ever want to see another homeless vet on the street corner, Suffering from some undiagnosed or underdiagnosed disorder and begging for money to buy a meal or wondering where he'll sleep at night!

I am outraged by the nearly 95% divorce rate and the millions of families torn apart by separation, War and a system that treats wives and children like second class citizens.
Out of 100 officer's wives , all dear friends of mine personally, Over the last twenty or so years, My marriage and two others are the only ones still in tact!. Wives and children must be protected!. The Military divorce hemorraging must stop!. The US Military family must be preserved.

The free Military divorce services do not work and do not protect the interests of the Military spouse who wants out!. Some Military fttorneys should be disbarred.
The head of MCCS Miramar Base Legal in San Diego, Does not have the best interests of the Military wife at heart.
This is a destructive unit with policies that manipulate wives seeking divorce, By outright lying, Derailing procedures and protecting their own.
The US Marine Corps Base Legal Office at Miramar and its senior officer in command has been officially added to the MILITARY EX watch list for derailing divorce and covering up an ethical violation.

No Military family in need should wait for months on end to get into housing or have to live in an embarrassing broken down tenament type dwelling that makes them feel like they are on 'welfare living in a poor section 8 community.
Military families deserve upgraded designer amenities including gourmet kitchens, Mini wine cellars, Plasma tv rooms and hot tubs and saunas or pools in their yards.

Military families should receive an all expense paid, Annual retreat to recreational compounds such as the Hale Koa in Hawaii, Courtesy of Good Old Uncle Sam, of course!

Conjegual visits are mandatory for married couples and essential to maintaining a healthy marriage.
Voice mail, video conferencing and free MAC flights for the spouses to visit should be mandatory.
Stop treating our Military Members like slaves and prisoners!

Eliminate deployments over four months. Eliminate extending deployments or returning troops to the war zones after they have done their time.
Troops need to decompress and that can not happen when they are subjected to the war zone for extended durations.

Military children should receive a complete upgrade in their current educational systems so that we can put an end to the embarrassingly low standardized test scores across the board which label our kids as Military brat drones.
Our kids should receive top rated ivy league educations and all the funding to support extra curricular programmes such as robotics, Foreign language study including Arabic, etc. , Science, the Arts and Math.
The increased funding, better schools, and more programmes will prepare our next generation to compete with the global community and have the common sense to run our country.

Military children should also receive a free college education. The stress and disruption of their lives , while traveling all over the world with their families should count for something!
