Just a rough guess, but I think those 4 things would add another 125B to our military budget. The add in the cost to repair and replace damaged equipment and you can add another 100B if not more.

Don't forget that any military that lives there state they are register in wether it be overseas in Iraq or in Hawaii. They get an extra 1k a week spending money not cut into there paycheck.
