California National Guard commander takes heat from Congress for forcing soldiers to repay bonuses
California National Guard Bonuses Defense and National Guard officials testified at a hearing on bonuses incorrectly paid to California National Guard soldiers. In opening remarks, Major General David Baldwin recommended a “streamlined adjudication process” that eliminates debts owed by soldiers who received improper incentives through no fault of their own. Lieutenant General Timothy Kadavy said that based multiple reviews of the Army National Guard, incentives program fraud is not a nationwide problem;
“We betrayed the trust of these troops, and there’s no excuse for that,” said Rep. Paul Cook (R-Yucca Valley) at the first congressional hearing on the bonus scandal since Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter ordered a suspension of the California Guard repayment program on Oct. 26.
