Those who drop out of the military early (due to being somehow unsuited for military life) were intended to lose their signing bonuses. But the system couldn't tell the difference between those who dropped out due to being unfit for the military, and those who were discharged due to injuries.

This is really a sad situation and I find it hard to believe anyone, Democrat or Republican, would condone it. Reid should be ashamed of himself.
