Another Story of Soldiers Getting Screwed

It's one of the great neo-McCarthyite accusations of our age: "You don't support the troops." Of course, it goes without saying that everybody in America supports the troops. It's the U.S. military which our soldiers work for that some of us have problems with.
The U.S. Military is demanding that thousands of wounded service personnel give back signing bonuses because they are unable to serve out their commitments.

To get people to sign up, the military gives enlistment bonuses up to $30,000 in some cases.
