> but if they do, they will charge you for it at military rates you almost certainly cannot afford:

But the link you posted said "We charge you the equivalent of a full coach commercial fare on a comparable mode of transportation at the time that commercial travel ceases to be a viable option."

Where'd you get the "military rates" part?

When was the last time you bought a full fare couch ticket? People are usually buying "double deep discount" tickets. Most of the time you can buy first or business fares for cheaper.

that's what they say of everything they buy for themselves too, and I've never saw a military contact that wasn't overcharged.
