The Military Retiree Medical Care Broken Promise Issue
The US Code was changed in 1956, but the medical care promise was still being made as late as 1991.
Superb Health Care. Health care is provided to you and your family members while you are in the Army, and for the rest of your life if you serve a minimum of 20 years of Federal service to earn your retirement.
Take a close look at the health care promise that was being made as late as 1991. Not only does it promise health care, but it promises "superb health care". It clearly indicates that health care is promised to you (the service member), and also to your family members while in the Army and for the rest of your life if you earn retirement. Note the numbers in the boxes. Note that the poster was printed in the United States Government Printing Office (U.S.G.P.O.1992 643-711) and the date is (RPI 909 NOVEMBER 1991).
