Credit Where Credit's DueView Messages“He was a Ranger in the 82nd ABN. Point Du Hoc is where Rangers earned the motto "lead the way". Rangers from the 2nd Batt were ordered to "lead the way" by a beach commander.” 3:09:37 PM 2/02/05 “Well as the article I posted clearly states, as it now stands the increase is only for the Afghanistan and Iraq theaters.

Ghost Soldiers maybe? Very impressive.” 3:13:52 PM 2/02/05 “The vileman being critical? Shut yo mouth!!! ;-)” 3:37:58 PM 2/02/05 “At the risk of sounding negative - I think it's not right that some outpatients at Walter Reed are now required to pay for their meals. Sorry if that sounds overly partisan.” 3:57:59 PM 2/02/05 “Here is the first line in the first article Violin "A Bush administration proposal to boost payments to families of U.S. troops killed in Iraq, Afghanistan and future war zones " So yes its only RETROACTIVE through 2001 but will cover future wars.
