It's ALWAYS the military folks that take it in the shorts before anybody else. Cut off foreign aid ?? Nope can't do that!! Elect NOT to take a vacation on the taxpayer's dime to the tune of $2 BILLION ?? Nope, can't do that!! Congress take a PAY CUT ?!?!?!?!? Ohhh, HELL NO!! The military should be the very LAST to get a pay freeze. Hell, even cut out some military "project" that hasn't come to fruition yet.....
