WASHINGTON, Jan. 28, 2008 - President Bush signed the long-delayed and sometimes-contentious fiscal 2008 National Defense Authorization Act into law today.
The Senate passed a $696 billion 2008 defense authorization bill Jan. 22. It includes a 3.5 percent military pay raise and provisions to improve health care and benefits for wounded troops and veterans.
