Good for them, I'd like to think our vets would do the same but try to keep politics out of this one....we have had enough in recent times.

Guess what? Jerk wad members of Congress showed up when they heard about the "breach". As if they had something to do with it These people(politicians)are human filth.They deserve the guillotine.

Well they did have something to do with it they are the ones that caused the shutdown.

you mean republican temper tantrum because they don't want the ACA to take away their federal health insurance and be like everybody else.

Weren't these the same guys who volunteered by the millions to fight while the president was, for all intents and purposes, a socialist?
