[TheForge] Iraq work(was Passing On)

[Michael H. Murphy]

Andy,

Most life insurance companies have a combat zone clause in them.  The only
way to find out is to ask.  Most will want to know where you're going to be;
if it's a hazardous area or a combat zone, they'll either disallow the
insurance, or charge you a swingeing rate.  Make sure you have it all in
writing before signing.
