Nelson, I don’t understand. We were also in for the last shutdown. The Army got paid. There was a bunch of fear and hoopla, but we didn’t even have a blip. Military is considered essential, and we never had an issue.

Heck, we didn’t even have a problem with TDY compensation.

Just got my LES (for the 15th). I got paid for 8 days. The reason there is a difference is back then the defense part of the budget had been passed. It hasn’t this time. Military will NOT get paid. Proof is in my (and everyone elses) LES.
