- House lawmakers criticized the National Guard over enlistment bonuses owed to more than 13,000 soldiers.
- Nearly 4,000 soldiers have since left the service without bonuses, which can total up to $20,000.
- Due in part to staffing issues and system outages, the delay comes amid the Army's recruiting crisis.
