This makes me so angry, I'm just glad someone is doing something about this.

Hate to say it, but this type of stuff happens quite often to traditional guard troops. I myself have been called on TDY orders for only 89 days where if my orders were over 90 some benefit or entitlement would go into effect. Hopefully these guys get what's rightfully theirs, but knowing the system I am doubtful of that. Thanks for posting this.
