Did anyone received a letter from the Retired enlisted Association. Letter claim that Obam has send proposal to Congressthat would, for the first time, impoase an annual fee on TRICARE For Life and impose new enrolement fees and additional fee increase for retirees under age 65.

He also wants to increase TRICARE Pharmacy copay and make us pay much more than you do now.

I did nor see anything like that in the military news or any place else. I just would like to hear if anyone received this letter or knows more about this issue.

I would not put this past Obama.

Obama Wants to Cut $12.9 Billion

Liberals defend the health care of teachers, unions, and illegal immigrants. But when it comes to the troops, they want to cut.

A proposal by the Obama administration would save $12.9 Billion by 2017 from the Tricare system.

No offense, but you apparently have not been associated with the military very long.

The loss of the quality of our benefits, ALL of them, ESPECIALLY our medical benefits, has been going on since before Barack Obama was born, under Democratic and Republican
Administrations and Congresses.

And it will continue.

They only thing which was of interest to me was if anyone receive the same letter as I did. I hope, I did not insult nayone by it by asking. If I did then I appologize.

Have a nice day.
