That said my immediate supervisor saw no need to cut my salary for one week or less tdy or AT stints. The paperwork wasn't worth it especially if my core duties were covered. I strenuously avoided anything longer to avoid lost pay and messed up beNefits. Sure I was covered by law but the complaint resolution process makes the VA look fast.Response by MSgt Aaron Brite made Jun 7 at 2015 4:45 PM2015-06-07T16:45:50-04:002015-06-07T16:45:50-04:00Todd Holmes1707304<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Amway Corp in Ada Township, Michigan pays their National Guard employees their full salary while deployed, rather than dropping their income and making your family experience a reduction in lifestyle as a result of lower wages while on deployment.
