verse Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 What, if any, compensation does ones family get in a situation like this? Do they have high yeild life insurance on people in the miltary or what? I'm just curious. I too wouldn't be against a donation collection.

Standard for SGLI is 400,000$, not sure of being married with a child, as usually there are more benefits for married and/or dependants.

SGLI, $450K Insurance, $14K burrial expense, and usually his pay grade +1 rank to his family for life. (Soldiers Group Life Insurance.) His family is entitled to his benefits like G.I Bill and veteran benefits too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Cranium Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 Words cannot express the respect I hold for those who choose to serve their country. You will be missed. Why not from now on at CR car shows honorary spaces be left open for members who are no longer living? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMTC Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 Just got off the phone with Megan. She said there would be an investigation that would take 3 days minimum.
