Is TSGLI Payable If The Service Member Dies As A Result Of The Traumatic Injury?
If the service member dies as a result of the traumatic injury, TSGLI is still payable if the member survived for a period of not less than seven full days from the date of the traumatic event and died before the maximum benefit for which the service member qualifies is paid. (The 7-day period begins on the date and time of the traumatic event, as measured by Zulu [Greenwich Meridian] time and ends 168 full hours later).
