The widow of an airman killed on a combat mission in the Middle East has shared her outrage after it took a viral social media post to get issues related to her husband's benefits and basic pay resolved.

Maj. Alex Klinner, 33, was one of six military members onboard a KC-135 refueling aircraft when it crashed in western Iraq in March while supporting operations against Iran. A total of 18 U.S. service members have been killed, along with 790 wounded, since the war began more than six months ago.



The Air Force reached out to his widow, Libby Klinner, this week to clarify that his final paycheck would include hazard pay and combat-related tax breaks. This came after she voiced frustration on social media at being told by a military officer assigned to support her after her husband’s death that he was ineligible for those benefits because “we were not at war.” 

“My husband lost his life because we’re in a war, and then I was told that because it’s not technically a war, we lose out on something,” Klinner told The Associated Press. “It all comes down to principle.”

Dear,

It's not a "war"....it's Project Freedom - The Jam in Iran.



In response to a separate question, Vance rejected the use of the word “war” to characterize U.S. fighting in Iran, saying that “there is no active shooting.” The military has launched strikes against targets in Iran twice this week, and Iran has retaliated by firing on U.S. allies in the Gulf.

The benefits they are discussing are the combat pay on the paycheck and the associated tax breaks for being in combant, not survivor benefits.  She would get survivor benefits if he died flying a training mission over Kansas. 

Acknowledge those facts.

I don't have to.  I have demonstrated that line of duty does not only apply to combat.  I have benefits from a line of duty accident.  You are talking out of your ***.

Yes, you do because I gave you a sourced definition from multiple government sites that deal with line of duty accidents.  You are saying YOU know better than a CFR and an AF Captain whose job it is to know.
