Service members now have greater flexibility when designating beneficiaries of their $100,000 death gratuity. Beginning July 1, a new law allows designation of as many as 10 beneficiaries to receive $10,000 increments. The beneficiaries do not have to be spouses or family members. Because of the change, officials urge service members to update their DD Form 93, which specifies who beneficiaries are. More information is available through local personnel offices.
