I was reading a fictional story today, completely unrelated to the war in Iraq. Actually, the story takes place in a completely fictional land and time. Anyway, a character in the story half jokingly asked his commanding officer if "dead" soldiers get paid - the characters were lost and thought dead for over a year. Regardless of the fictional nature of the story, it made me very curious and brought up a bunch of questions. Especially wondering if our own MIA/POW soldiers get paid for time they're unaccounted for?

So here are my questions.

If captured or lost and thought dead either in war time, training or general mission and then a soldier is released, found or returns does the soldier get back pay?

Do surviving family members get any kind of pay for MIA/POWS?

If a body isn't recovered are you automatically considered MIA?

How do death benefits work in these cases?

Lastly, what is active duty? Does it pertain to war time only? What other duty is there?

Thanks

I am currently going to school for Criminal Justice at the University of Phoenix. In the long run I want to become a probation officer. I know I can start working after I get my associates for the detention or the corrections department and when I get my bachelors I can try for Probation. But the downside is I have been a stay at home mom for a couple years. I do not have work experiance. With the day care costs it would cost me money to go to work with no degree. Do they hire people with no work history? We are also filling bankruptcy which I know they look down on. But we went through a hard 6 months and we got ourselves in a hole. I know there are no excuses. But I will take any suggestions :D Thank you

I'm going on holiday to Mexico in a couple of weeks to get away from all the stresses and strains of every day life. My plan is to sit on the beach getting tremendously drunk whilst listening to some nice relaxing music. But I don't know what, so it would be good to get some recommendations for some nice chilling music, preferably albums. I don't mind if they're from a particular artist or a compliation, but here's some examples of sort of thing I like:

Lene Marlin
Enya
Bob Marley
Cherry Ghost
Some Sting stuff

Not a lot to go on I suppose, but any recommendations would be welcome.

I recently got in contact with an ex-girlfriend from my high school days more than 10 years ago. We have not spoken to nor seen each other in that time period. Upon getting in contact with each other we have become friends and have been talking a lot about what has happened in the last 10 years. She is happily married and living more than 400 miles away. I am married and both of our spouses are aware that we are in communication.

We are and have not thought about planning anything individually and in fact have been trying to plan a meeting that includes both spouses. My wife has recently demanded that I discontinue communication because it is damaging our marriage. So, my question is this. Is it wrong for one adult who is (or thought he was) happily married to communicate to an ex-girlfriend, who is also happily married, on a friendly basis?

**Keep in mind when answering that we are both open about our communications with our respective spouse.

I wore mine for 10 years, until I had to take it off because of pregnancy (my hands swelled up). I plan on replacing it someday, I really liked mine. It was a "fashion" styled ring that you wouldn't know was a class ring unless you looked at it closely. It was my first "real" (ie not cheap fake gold) piece of jewelry. It was 14K white gold with an alexandrite and two diamonds set in hearts.
