To pay a one-time bonus to members of the Armed Forces who serve honorably in a combat zone designated for Operation Iraqi Freedom or Operation Enduring Freedom, and for other purposes.

H.R. 5162 was a legislative proposal designed to provide a one-time $1,500 bonus to members of the U.S. Armed Forces, including both active-duty and reserve components. To qualify, a service member must have served honorably for any length of time in a combat zone designated for Operation Iraqi Freedom or Operation Enduring Freedom. The bill aimed to provide direct financial recognition to veterans and current service members for their deployment in these specific conflict zones. Following its introduction in 2006, the bill was referred to committee but did not advance further to become law.
