As greedy as it sounds. If you pay us more, you get more out of us.
As a PFC i get payed 1300 a month. After taxes its like 1000. Now send me to a combat zone (been to Iraq already) with 1000 dollars a month, its not all that much consitering what we are doing. I got payed 400 dollars "hazardous duty pay" (combat pay)and 300 dollars "overseas deployment pay". I still didn't make bank you anything but i thought i got what i deserved. Now in a attempt to stop President Bushs "Surge" Senate is stopping all kinds of extra pay for soldiers who are being deployed. Now this wont stop the President from deploying soldiers. But it will mean hundreds of thousands of pissed off soldiers in a combat zone. I know if i didnt get that extra pay every month i would pretty much stop caring whats going on outside and just try to make it threw alive. Iam almost 100% on this when i say nothing but bad things is going to come from this.

This page looks alot different. I used lighting tools and stuff like that. Anyone know where i can get some good fonts for free?

thanks and sorry for the delay
