At random: The USS SKIPJACK was the first submarine designed from the keel up for top underwater performance using nuclear power. An earlier SKIPJACK was the first U.S. submarine to cross the Atlantic ocean under her own power (Newport, Rhode Island to Ponta Delgada, Azores, in 1917).

TRICARE Inpatient Fee Hike Killed


When the Pentagon announced last week that it would raise inpatient copays for retired TRICARE Standard beneficiaries by $110 per day, MOAA swung into action, writing the Secretary of Defense, contacting the White House, and writing Hill leaders to reverse that plan.

MOAA members did their part by generating almost 20,000 messages to the Hill.

These combined efforts yielded positive results, as the newly released FY2010 Defense Authorization Act includes a provision barring any inpatient copay increase.
