Survivors welcome death benefit rise for war losses
Military families welcomed the increase from 12 000 to 100 000 for next of kin of those killed in combat zones or training since October 7 2001. The change, part of an 82 billion emergency war bill, also raises life insurance from 250 000 to 400 000. Survivors stressed the loss remains irreplaceable, but law offers relief for bills and children.
