Reversing an earlier decision forcing overpaid Army reservists who were either sick or injured at Fort Bragg to return money to the government, it now looks like the majority of reservists will have their overpayments waived, according to a story in the Fayetteville Observer.

Over 232 sick or injured reservists were paid a total of $218,000 in hostile-fire pay. The overpayment will likely come out of the military pay budget.
