Air Force boosts pay to retain fighter pilots amid shortages
The Pentagon offers a nine year Aviator Retention Program with a 225000 signing bonus plus a 34500 to 97400 salary, targeting 130 veterans to fly fighters as Air Force faces a deficit of about 200 pilots this year and a potential shortfall of 700 by 2021. The program aims to keep 200 to 250 eligible pilots, while airline competition and higher drone use also affect retention and demand.

Prosecution frames Manning as betrayer of trust in WikiLeaks case
Prosecutors depict Army private Bradley Manning as a traitor who sought to reveal classified material to help enemies. They argued he sent battlefield reports and cables to WikiLeaks to embarrass diplomats and to gain notoriety, while defense counters he did not intend harm. The case, heard before Army Col. Denise Lind, hinges on whether Manning knew al Qaeda would access the data.
