This is great! I missed the opening of the forum as I was at Livermore VA Hospital.

I was surprised when I saw all the postings. Some of you I have been seeing on IRV2 and didn't realize you were veterans.

With this forum, I think we'll get an influx of new members when I announce the new forum on other forums.

As you know, TRICARE is planning to raise fees. You can find a form on www.Military.com which can be filled out and it gets emailed to the appropriate representatives and senators from your zip code with comments about the raise. If you're not a member of Military.com, I recommend it. I get an email from them once a week and also a Navy email the day after. Check it out.

George,
Where is the form located at that website to send to our representative?

Thanks Kablewizard. That's a great site for getting up-to-date info.

Mike:
It should be on there somewhere. I got it in my email. I'll take a look and get the address and then put it here with an edit.

EDIT: Here is the link to the actually letter:
