Training, feeding and transporting a unit of 100 crack commandos wouldn't cost but a few million dollars. 25 mil is alot of cash.. Not to mention the state department is contemplating doubling the reward on Osama. The soldiers that captured Sadham should have been able to designate the charity the money went to.. Instead, uncle sam wiped his brow and said "thank goodness I own their asses so I don't have to fess up the cash".. It's the troops job.. sure, sure whatever.. A deal is a deal.. If a reward is offered it should be paid out somehow.. Rhino

I WILL be getting a job offer this morning so money shouldn't be an issue this summer. I'm getting my tandem cert, AFF and jumping my ass off!!!

DZ.com ROAD TRIP!!!

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6894193/ What a bummer... I mean what a crappy situation to be in.. What a load of crap.. I mean holy shit already!! LOL Rhino

Congress wants the raise in benefits to get backdated for all servicemen that have died. Way to go congress.. I like this. A pissing match in the Government to do the righter thing..

Just saying a prayer for all you dz.com people and your families. May you have great health, wealth and happiness. God Bless! Rhino

Understood. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't get it just as a civilian would for getting him out of that cave. By the way... Thank you for what you are doing... I personally appreciate your service.. My family appreciates it.. Be safe, and I hope you nail that rat bastard! Semper Fi! Rhino

Uncle Sam is picking up the tab on the taxes.

Kids have great smiles!

Yep.. Because we all know Google is right 100% of the time

Hey man.. You drive the boats we will stick a bayonette in anyone that tries to get you

Yes. To this day I am not allowed to share the details. Thankfully no... And I wasn't bad mouthing the Navy. We were making fun in case you couldn't tell. Marines have always calles the navy squids and the Navy has always called the Marines Jar heads. I have the right to poke fun at navy boys ANY DAMNED TIME I PLEASE and I will continue to do so out of fun and brotherhood... Now... I appreciate the fact that you were awarded the bronze star. I appreciate the fact that you saved some of my brothers lives. Thank you. Yes you are wrong.. In a big way. People on here that know me have no doubt that I stand for what I believe in.. I love my country and believe in it very much. NOR was I. I feel the same way... I still don't see a problem with the unit deciding AT LEAST where the money goes. Those of you that seem to think in your brain housing groups that I am in any way trying to lessen the honor of being a servicemember are WAAAAAY of track... Enough said... Rhino

I don't think less of ANY service member..

Bam! Well written.. My post goes to the root of the issue... It is intersting hearing the different viewpoints. My position is pretty solid. I see nothing wrong with "at least" the soldiers deciding what should be done with the funds... Rhino

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,145949,00.html Way to go Pres!!! A step in the right direction!!

o.k. so let the unit pick the Charity it goes to.. I'll go half way...

Agreed... I didn't get in the Marines for the paycheck. I wanted to be a Marine. But I will be damned if I didn't need every dime of every paycheck.

Very funny... Is that why the Navy coined the term Tea-Bagging? It's my understanding that Navy boys like that sort of thing from each other What do you call a bunch of navy boys wearing all white in a group? Seaman!!

Wrong.. Where did I state it was necessary? READ MY POSTS AGAIN... Attention to detail my friend.. And I was serious. I believe the money should be paid out to the unit finding the terrorists.

That is bullshit.. They have families and children to feed just like anyone else. Marines need money JUST AS BADLY as civilians do...

The troops are eating 2 MRE's a day. Doesn't matter if you are making crap food.

That was a very ignorant and unwarranted question.

In my opinion the only people diserving a cut are the soldiers DIRECTLY in harms way that are themselves going through the caves and hiking the mountains with 70lbs of gear every day. They diserve it.. Not the cook, or intel guy behind the lines in a heated shelter. Give it to the men that do the work..

Maybe.. Maybe not.. It might remain classified. As a matter of fact.. We may already have Bin Laden...

Agreed.. Soldiers should make at least twice what they are paid now... Nothing is wrong with bonuses... The military is paying bonuses for people to sign up? Why not pay bonuses as an incentive to stay in...
