Yes there will some ongoing costs; however, large portions of those costs are fixed costs that would be incurred anyway. >>To take care of the families of the vets that were killed. This is done through a life insurnece policy -- my son's was $500,000 I believe during his deployment times. It diesn't amount to a huge number though. Iraq will be a gift that keeps on taking......
