This is just ridiculous! I was linked to this article by my good friend, Nea, and I'm amazed by how utterly stupid this is.
Tens of thousands of the nation's war widows find it perplexing and downright disrespectful to their late military husbands: In order to fully collect on insurance their husbands bought for them when alive, they must marry another man.
And to qualify, the widows must remarry when they are 57 or older. Those who remarry earlier miss out, as do widows who never remarry.
Seriously? They'll get NOTHING unless they get remarried after they're 57? Why?
