Tell me Indexer- do you actually have any thoughts on anything resembling the purpose of this site? For example do you have any thoughts on how to prepare to get into a Service Academy? Do you have any experience you could relate to students contemplating pursuing a commission thru ROTC or OCS? Do you in short have any business on the US Service Academy Forums beyond posting political commentary devoid of any relationship with the rest of the forum?you can thank the democrats for it.
Well, considering that this new change was part of the new GI Bill of 2008; which PRESIDENT George W. Bush signed into law; and that Obama had nothing to do with; and that the MINORITY party (Republicans) had to force the Democrats to do what was right by the military; seems like something "Indexer" conveniently forgot to mention.

The 75-22 vote on the GI bill and domestic spending marked a resounding victory for Senate Democrats as well as Sen. Jim Webb (D-Va.), who has battled to expand the educational benefits for soldiers who served in Iraq.
Not altering the facts. It was a compromise. Hence, the overwhelming 75-22 vote. As with anything in D.C., compromises are required. That's part of our political system. The republicans being a minority for the last 3+ years makes initiating and sponsoring bills difficult.
Proper grammar requires that you capitalize the first letter in a sentence and that, for the same reason rather than they actually rating it, the word "Democrats" be likewise capitalized.
Make sure you ask your teacher to review those details with you when you start fourth grade in September.
Even a stopped clock gets it right twice every twenty four hours.
The pronoun "they" refers to the plural antecedent "Democrats," and is correct. The infinitive "to review" is not split.
SUSTAINED ELIGIBILITY – After transfer of benefits, spouse eligibility will not be affected by divorce, and children will stay eligible even if they marry. But the member retains ownership of the benefit and can modify or revoke transfer at any time without explanation. Also, the GI Bill benefit cannot be treated by judges as property to be shared in a divorce.
I think that The new GI bill may help more folks stay in on AD. With the cost of college sky rocketing, many folks have been jumping out to the big $$$ with contractors. If you know 2 years of college is covered for your 2 kids, there is less pressure to get out. Maybe we can keep a few more O-4s and E-5/6s.
