Mt. Lebanon Vet Nears End Of Battle On Bonuses

Former Army Pfc. Jordan Fox, 21, of Mt. Lebanon is one signature away from ensuring the Defense Department never tries to get enlistment bonuses or other incentives back from combat-wounded soldiers.

While serving in Iraq, Fox suffered wounds to his back and was partially blinded in his right eye by a roadside bomb. A few weeks after the military gave him a medical discharge a year ago, he received a letter demanding that he repay about $5,000 of his $10,000 enlistment bonus because of his early departure from military service.
