ARTICLE: DoD Removes Six Countries From Imminent Danger Pay List, By Jim Garamone, American Forces Press Service, March 30, 2007

A sign of integration toward the Core. Imagine--if you're anyone but John McCain--how far we remain from this goal in Iraq.

Unfortunately, Kuwait wasn't removed from the list. There are still far too many countries designated as combat zones, without any combat. I almost felt guilty receiving "Imminent Danger Pay" in Kuwait. But the policy isn't going to change anytime soon. Military VIPs fly in at the end of one month, spend a few days, then leave at the beginning of the next month—that's 2 months tax-free!
