The Army briefly stiffed wounded servicemen late this week but on Friday Secretary of Defense Robert Gates and President George Bush struck back and kicked Army Secretary Francis J Harvery out of office and fired the one-day temporary commander at Walter Reed, Lt. Gen. Kevin Kiley, who had been in charge there in the 2002-2004 period. Kiley recently put down the Washington Post revelations of horrific living conditions and complaints of veterans and parents and others about inadequate services to wounded servicemen returning from the battlefield as one-sided and inaccurate.
My earlier blogs on Walter Reed include: Feb. 24, March 1, and earlier today, March 2, on the shocking appointment of Kiley who veterans groups and others said had been told about some of the problems as far back as 2004.
All over America people are upset about the situation at Walter Reed. It's incredibly arrogant that Harvey and top Army generals allowed Kiley to be put back in charge of Walter Reed. Did these dummies believe Americans would sit still for such goings on?
