Its really a question of broken promises...When I joined the Navy I was told that if I made it a career I would have free benefits for life...That benefit was huge the first time I reenlisted because I realized what a good benefit it would be....I am not sure I would have reenlisted without it......As I said prior to 65 I paid the TRICARE premiums for me and my wife........When I turned 65 I picked up the MEDICARE premiums....I don't care how much they are they are not free and that is what we were promised..........
I go to a Naval Hospital and my doctor is a 4 stripper (a captain) Our care is good....The Navy takes care of its own....I have no complaint about that.........
Somebody promised you something and didn't deliver? Are you kidding me? Well **** in a toilet and call it flowers, life isn't fair. The rest of us adults have learned that. About time you did too. Take it up with the people who made such a ridiculous promise they knew they couldn't keep. Not people living in the 21st century.
