STOP-LOSS retroactive pay approved.
I've double checked this and it's for real. The gist is $500 a month for each month you were stop lossed.
DoD To Implement Retroactive Stop Loss Special Pay
The Defense Department announced today the services' implementation plans to provide retroactive stop loss special pay. Active, reserve and former service members who had their enlistment extended or retirement suspended due to stop loss are eligible for this special pay, if they served on active duty between Sept. 11, 2001 and Sept. 30, 2009.
Service members may begin submitting their claim for retroactive stop loss special pay on Oct. 21, 2009. In accordance with the 2009 Supplemental Appropriations Act, all applications must be submitted to the respective services no later than Oct. 21, 2010. Eligible personnel will receive a payment of $500 per month for each month (or any portion of a month) that a member was retained on active duty due to stop loss. Applicants for retroactive pay who are no longer in the military had to be honorably discharged, and for those who were stop lossed in fiscal 2009, may only receive payment from one stop loss authority - either the money appropriated for stop loss special pay in the Duncan Hunter National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2009, or the money allocated for retroactive stop loss special pay in the 2009 Supplemental Appropriations Act, but not both.
Service members must provide documented proof they were stop lossed with their claim. Family members of deceased service members should contact the appropriate military service for assistance in filing their claim.

Stop loss provides a valuable and critical tool to quickly retain and generate forces to surge in a major conflict. However, as deployment schedules stabilize, the department must then adapt and minimize its use of stop loss. The secretary of defense announced in March a comprehensive plan to eliminate the current use of stop loss, while retaining the authority for future use under extraordinary circumstances.

I'm sorry, but I really think stop-loss pay is bullshit. You signed the ******* contract that said they could stop loss you, you don't deserve extra money because they do. Yes it sucks and I sympathize, but cry me a ******* river.
On the other hand, if you were stop lossed BEYOND your inactive reserve commitment, that is ILLEGAL AS **** and their should be legal action taking place on hehalf of those who had that happen, and you shouldn't accept a couple hundred bucks to make it ok.

Just know that once you recieve that first check you will no longer be eligable for re-inlistment under any circumstances.
Happend to a guy here in my platoon he was going to re-enlist because they were able to get him the assignment he wanted, but since he got stop loss pay he became uneligable. so if you plan to re-enlist but want to try to collect stop loss pay first just know it wont work.
