Service members forced to pay back signing bonuses after being fired over COVID vax: ‘Kick in the...

And, expecting to keep for a full bonus for having served only a partial enlistment is asking for a handout. The pro-rated bonus is the right answer.

LTC Kevin B. I would agree under normal early discharge situations. But the policy was repealed as it should have been. They should not be kicked again. They gave up careers. When do we make the difference between when it is okay for the government to tell me what to do with my body, and pro choice of the individual? My personal beliefs are 100% pro choice... the government should never be able to tell anyone, medically what they can or can not do with thier bodies, ever. Some of these guys are being forced to repay re enlistment bonuses. We aren't just talking about initial bonuses recoup. I have a friend, served 2 combat deployments, served 8 years and re enlisted for another 4... we are going to make him pay back his bonus. When is it enough?

Capt Gregory Prickett so, pro choice isn't for everyone? Just when it benefits the pole results? Come on, these people were willing to die for our country. That carries no empathy from you?

I wonder if these Soldiers would have refused the more than 10 anthrax shots I had in the past...bunch of pansys...
