  18. We are obviously in intense need of our Official Weekly VAWA-Thread Joke: ===================================== WHAT YOU'RE ENTITLED TO Airman Jones was assigned to the induction center where he was to advise new recruits about their government benefits, especially their GI insurance. It wasn't long before Captain Smith noticed that Airman Jones had a nearly 100% record for insurance sales, which had never happened before. Rather than ask about this, the Captain stood in the back of the room and listened to Jones' sales pitch. Jones explained the basics of the GI Insurance to the new recruits, and then said, "If you have GI Insurance and go into battle and are killed, the government has to pay $200,000 to your beneficiaries. If you don't have GI insurance, and you go into battle and get killed, the government has to pay only a maximum of $6,000." "Now," he concluded, "Which bunch do you think they are going to send into battle first?"

Absolutely accurate. He should carry the most recent documentation with him at all times. See this thread, which can apply to more than airports: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/562879-cbp-at-tsa-airport-checkpoints-why-theyre-there-how-best-to-handle/#entry7784682
