Reply #10: What ?

These guys risk their life for their country, then they get disabled in the line of duty. And
you want to cancel their pension ? Do you think they fell of a ladder or something, they
were disabled in the line of duty. They deserve disability, and their pension.

I have a pension from International Paper, that I can collect when I turn 62 years of age.
If I become disabled before then I still get my full pension. Why should someone lose their
pension because they become disabled ?

Especially when it is in the line of duty, and they risk their life for it. They should get both, and
I can not see any reason to deny them a pension. Would you risk your life for your country if
you knew that if you got disabled in the line of duty you would lose your pension ?

I sure as hell would not do it, if that is the rule, nobody would join the military.
