The Post 9/11 GI Bill is meant to be an investment in veterans, reserve, active duty, and the future of America. The Obama administration expects $78 billion to be paid out over the Post 9/11 GI Bill over the next decade. "We do this not just to meet our moral obligation to those who sacrificed greatly on our behalf, on behalf of the country," quotes Obama at a celebration held at George Mason University. "We do it because these men and women must now be prepared to lead our nation in the peaceful pursuit of economic leadership in the 21st century."]]> http://www.veteransbenefitsgibill.com/2009/08/07/obama-celebrates-post-911-gi-bill/feed/ 1
