Just one question for any and all who are responding, did you serve?

The housing was part of the package they were promised when they signed on 
the dotted line and it included the utitlities.  Do you seriously think 
these folks are just slepping along burning up as much power as they can? 
*Most* of them are just getting buy on military pay!

And what difference does it make if your father took advantage of his 
position.  Does that mean that because he did everyone does?  Besides which, 
he probably should have been paid a hell of a lot more than the value of a 
few batteries.
