Ken Scott, maybe my words came out a little harsh (never a good idea to drink and type), but my feelings remain the same - if you knowingly collect CEA with no intention of moving you are morally wrong at least. I feel strongly about it because somebody I know claims CEA just to put his two sons through public school - he hasn't moved in his last three tours and would run screaming if he was posted away. Unfortunately, the system allows him and his upwardly-mobile wife to educate their two effectively at my expense.
