President Obama has ordered the Defense Department to speed up a review of its attempt to recoup enlistment bonuses from National Guard members and to ensure that the Pentagon doesn’t “nickel and dime” them.

Even as a congressional panel Tuesday ordered a separate investigation into the California National Guard’s management of the military pay and bonus system. White House press secretary Josh Earnest refused to say whether Mr. Obama supports a call by some lawmakers to waive repayment of the bonuses.

“I don’t think he’s prepared to go that far at this point,” he told reporters.
