SICK OF PHYSICIANS' GRIPES ABOUT CALL-UPS

I AM SICK and tired of hearing physicians complain of financial ruin due to their call-up to active duty from the reserves. What did they think they were signing up for? Free money with no catch?

They were paid to train for active duty in case a war started, and now they complain about having to serve. They did not complain when the checks for the monthly drills and two weeks of active duty were coming. JAY NEWMAN CHRISTIANSBURG
