It not unusal that the Federal Government has to pay millions of dollars to get the information I already know. If not for our Service members returning fromt his last war (Iraqi)we would not have such a study being done either! I'm a spouse of a retired military member and I feel that I'm not getting the best care because our military insurance (Tricare) doesn't pay for it...not for spouses anyways! They now have Chiropractic care for service members coming home from war though! Because it works!
