What the???

You're too emotional. The troops. The troops. The troops.

How about the serving the country through contractual agreements?
Going to war and getting wounded should by definition mean you served. Signing bonus's are to get you in the door. Straight business no emotion they should have paid that 30k out in 4 installments over the term of the service. Since they did not and gave the money up front they should be out of luck. Nice way to thank our troops for losing limbs ( more emotion) !!
Everyone should be emotional about this because it is a travesty. I have no one on the front lines and I am disgusted!!
