    It is not right to break up families. Our military personel need to be with their families as much as it feasible- especially because they are with them less than the rest of us. This gives them the R&R they need plus the perspective to continue their vital work for our country.

    Our military families give more the most of us will ever give to our country; their spouses and children should not be punished for such a sacrifice.

    It is wrong for us to cut something that does so much to help keep our heroes encouraged and refreshed.

    Service is a commitment and a willingness to sacrifice - don't sacrifice our families, that's who we're fighting for!

    I am an "Army brat" from a long line of military men and women and it saddens me to see the US nickel and diming their military families through budget cuts. Keeping the military strong has as much to do with keeping the family units strong as it does with the latest weapons and equipment. Please at least give them back their 2 weeks R n R--they have given so much to us.

    In times when National Guards are being asked to do more with less, and are mobilized for 12 months at a time, R&R is essential for morale.

    Cutting R&R is so wrong in so many ways. It's bad for our troops and their families, and thus bad for our country
