A <a href="http://www.freep.com/news/latestnews/pm18723_20040303.htm">Michigan teacher activated for military duty</a> has to pay for his substitute and forfeit some of his military pay to the school district. I thought we were supposed to support our National Guard troops not penalize them for their duty. The last comment in the article is really cryptic.<br />n<br />n<i>As a result of Bernhardt's situation, Kenowa Hills school board members now are likely to create a specific policy covering employee military leave.<br />n<br />n"In the future, he's not going to get out that well," Gillette said</i>.<br />n<br />nSo they're going to make it tougher on him in the future? Generous people , aren't they.<br />n<br />n<b>Each man must for himself alone decide what is right and what is wrong, which course is patriotic and which isn't. You cannot shirk this and be a man.
