Despite steep pay raises since the 9/11 terror attacks, too many military personnel still struggle to feed their families and need an easier way to get food stamps, according to a new bill from a San Diego congresswoman (Susan Davis). Is this needed and Should More Troops Become Eligible for Food Stamps?

Which should make the government feel good that people in their employ (in harms way too) should be on subsistence of any kind. Great job entitlement society. Steep pay raises- I am a dual status tech in the Guard...I don't remember anything to steep. We had a pay freeze from 2010 until Jan this last year of 1.3%. I guess steepness is relative.

this is most interesting ... at one Time during the Clinton administration they were... and I think they were during the Carter administration ... the Lower Ranks with children
because of the Pay and Promotion Freezes the Kids were in bad financial condition...
This is as a result of the BHO Regime choking the Pay raises to less than the Cost of Living Increases...

The thought that anyone serving their country in the US military should qualify for food stamps should be a national embarrassment.
