I am filling up and application for tuition assistance and I need to fill up the military untaxed income worksheet . I do not know what to put in :

OHA (Overseas Housing Allowance)
Meal Card
Separate rations/BAS (basic allowance for subsistence)
BAH (Basic Allowance for Housing)

I thought BAH and OHA is the same . Are they ? If not where do I find OHA value ? We are currently stationed here in Japan . On my husband's LES he has BASE PAY / BAS /BAH / CAREER SEA PAY / COLA , nothing about OHA and meal card . I thought meal card was the same as BAS . there's meal deduction but I don't think it's the meal card since it's a deduction and not actually an income . Please help me out !

If we control the oil in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Iraq, Mexico (countries we already control) plus Iran and Venezuela, we'd have control over 72% of all the world's oil reserves.

Then we will have the muscle to suffocate our main enemy, China, since they'll be needing lots of oil in the near future. Since control of the world's oil is vital to keep ourselves as the sole superpower, wouldn't an invasion of Iran and Venezuela be justified?

Instead of losing hundreds of American lives, as it's happened in Iraq, should we launch a nuclear attack on Tehran, Mashad and Isfahan? In the long term, it may save many lives. The war would be over in one hour.

I consider myself patriotic, but not mindlessly so. I support those who have and are serving in the Armed Forces both materially, and by paying attention to political issues that affect veterans and voting accordingly. At the same time, I find myself blanching at the attitude of some who almost cheer for war, who speak of it as a glorious undertaking. I can't think of it, or of the things our men and women have to do for reasons I sometimes can't justify in my head or heart, nor the things some have to live with afterwards for the rest of their lives, as anything but tragedy. If anything positive can be gleaned from it, I feel it is due to the personal commitment of the men and women who are serving or have served, not due to any governmental policy involved with war itself. In some circles, I've been called everything from a traitor to a hippie to a commie for stating these opinions. How can honoring our troops enough to believe that their lives are precious be unpatriotic?

The figure of 650,000 Iraqi deaths since the start of the war has been so freely bandied about like it is fact. But that means on average 445 Iraqi's would have to die every day for 4 years to reach that number.

So has anyone seen a report of that many people in Iraq dying in one day? I hear reports of 18 people one day, 50 here, maybe a little over a hundred an a particularly brutal day. But where are the 445 daily deaths? If the press isn't reporting them, are they ignoring it? Or maybe that number should be suspect to begin with.

Hello everyone,

I am a 25 y/o male and a junior in college, and I would like to join the Army Reserve. I wanted to join after high school when I was 17 , but was reluctant, I know I am a bit old now, but it took me this long to mature enough to make this decision. I would like to leave for boot camp in June of 07 and im wondering how long I will be away, and how much I will be paid per month for my time at boot camp. Will I be back before september for the new school quarter? I emailed GoArmy.com but they never answered my email.

I also have to know how much I will be paid per month while I am away at boot camp, as I have a car payment and other bills that cannot be put on hold. Can anyone please help me?

I dont want to go down to the recruiting station to ask, as I do not want to be pressured into anything.

What I am asking is how many troops have served since the beginning and over the course of the war. Not how many are serving currently.

The public in general is not aware that:

If a servicemember has 20 years of service, breaks a leg in a softball game (and it affects their mobility), they get *ALL* retirement pay *AND* VA compensation.

But if they fall off a tank while reparing it and are paralyzed, but have less than 20 years of service they are *REQUIRED TO FORFIET* retirement pay if they accept VA compensation. (with some rare insignificant exceptions)

Shouldn't a 25 year-old with, say, six years of service get their six years worth of retirement pay? (about $200 a month)

Private companies are required by law to "vest" employees after participating 5 years in a retirement fund. But not the government.

Doesn't the paralyzed 25 year old NEED the extra money, where the 20 year "full" retiree with a limp could probably get by without the VA compensation ($200-$300 monthly)

The public doesn't know this. Even MOST congressmen don't realize it works this way. If they did I KNOW they would be outraged.
