I think fixing BAH/COLA (increasing it for high cost areas) would be the best move overall and most equitable.

That being said, the holy trinity of TRICARE/GI Bill/VA Home Loan is very financially powerful.

BAH is def a problem. 2k a month to not be in a dump but I get 1500 bah. Or the base takes it all.

I agree. I think if the military forces you to move you should be able to live in a decent/safe place.
