"You never know when emergencies will arrive,' he said. wM "My mother passed away, and it wasn't payday. AER provided me enough money for a round-tri-p ticket home. The loan doesn't need to be paid back all at once, it's very reasonable and helps in times of trouble." AER loans are to be paid back before a soldier ends time in service. For those not able to pay the money back, grants are available on a case by case basis. No government funds are appropriated to provide emergency assistance for those in financial trouble. Therefore, AER must rely on annual contributions in addi- tion to repayments of loans and income from invest- ments in order to finance operations. The relief fund was established in 1942 and is still as needed and used today as it was then. About 5,000 letters were sent out to active duty Army and retirees urging them to contribute to the fund.
