Stop-Loss News

Posted at 12:20 pm | Filed Under veterans articles 

We are delighted with the DoD’s recent decision to phase out the stop-loss program that has extended enlistment contracts for over 160,000 active duty troops since 2001. This was intended as a short-term measure that has gone on for far too long. It is a major victory for the troops in Iraq and Afghanistan and for their families. In addition, there are provisions to pay them something for their overtime.
