I'm proud of my service, my step dad was career, he was proud of his service also. He went in the service in the mid 20s That's 1920's. He said he was lucky to get in. I contribute to a lot of bonafide veterans support groups.Have grandson who,s still serving. BUT They asked for it!
I don't remember what I signed but If I'm not mistaken they told me how much I would get paid and with each promotion I was also told I would get paid a certain amount. I don't see how volunteering is an issue? Congress and potus is a volunteer job as well. Maybe in fine print they have something that says we pay if we want??? Doubtful.
