I have no time to do anything today, what with it being the end of the month, a well-traveled weekend and of course my office is in mourning over the Kentucky/Michigan game last night, but I want to make certain I link to this article I saw in the New York Times this morning.
Some Creditors Make Illegal Demands on Active-Duty Soldiers
Sgt. John J. Savage III, an Army reservist, was about to climb onto a troop transport plane for a flight to Iraq from Fayetteville, N.C., when his wife called with alarming news: "They're foreclosing on our house."
Sergeant Savage recalled, "There was not a thing I could do; I had to jump on the plane and boil for 22 hours."
He had reason to be angry. A longstanding federal law strictly limits the ability of his mortgage company and other lenders to foreclose against active-duty service members...
Free registration is required to read the article, but it is worth it (I've yet to be spammed because of NYT).
I do know there are a lot of military families on my fList. There are so few times that the government actually will pass a law that protects people (especially the current government) so when there is something out there, people should be aware of it.
And now I go back to the grindstone or millstone or whatever kind of stone today is.
