Florida Army National Guard - Jax FL Still Waiting on PS Bonus - It's been 23 Months due 2nd Installment and NOW told I won't receive it - Completely Asinine! Jacksonville Florida
Re-enlisted Dec 2009 with the FL ANG. Was contracted to receive $15,000 bonus with 50% paid upon re-enlistment date (which took 4 months for them to process) and the remaining to be paid in two installments - one upon completion of 3 years and the final upon the completion of enlistment period. Been waiting on the 2nd installment now for 23 months, gone through all the chains of command and being told its waiting on ANG to process. In October 2014 was advised DFAS has paperwork and it would take approximately 3-4 weeks and would receive it.
Today was told would not be receiving the remainder and in fact should not have received any of it or even been re-enlisted. But they had no problem deploying me to Iraq in 2011, have me work a position I'm technically not "MOSQ" to do. And now just SOL. It's absurd how soldiers are treated after signing their lives on the dotted line to serve and protect. It's sickening after almost 10 years of giving and giving just supposed to sweep this under the rug, shrug my shoulders and be ok with it.
