The Servicemember’s Group Life Insurance program now covers traumatic injuries—called TSGLI. It automatically provides coverage up to $100,000 for anyone insured by SGLI for a flat monthly premium of $1. It’s also retroactive, by Public Law 109-13, for “qualifying losses” suffered between Oct. 7, 2001 and Dec. 1, 2005, if they were due to injury from service in Operation Enduring Freedom or Operation Iraqi Freedom.
The Air Force will stand up a new unit next year to shape how the service fights with one-way attack drones.
