There’s more from the Military Times: 13 percent of eligible vets seek stop-loss pay

The program pays eligible applicants $500 for
every month they were involuntarily retained beyond their contracted
terms of service.

So far, payments have averaged $4,500 per approved application.

Personnel officials believe as many as 120,000 Army veterans are
eligible, a figure that represents most of the 170,000 members of all
services that Pentagon officials estimate may qualify.

The application window for the program opened Oct. 21, but as of
early February only 16,000 former soldiers had applied, according to
Maj. Ray Whitley, project manager for the Army’s retroactive stop-loss
pay task force.
