Reports of a rising death rate and rooms spattered with blood, urine and feces at the Armed Forces Retirement Home prompted the Pentagon yesterday to begin investigating conditions at the veterans facility in Northwest Washington.
The Government Accountability Office warned the Pentagon this week that residents of the home "may be at risk" in light of allegations of severe health-care problems. Residents have been admitted to Walter Reed Army Medical Center with "the most serious type of pressure sores" and, in one case, with maggots in a wound, according to a GAO letter sent to the Defense Department.
Unbelievable what our men and women are subjected to in war and at home.
Granted, maggot therapy may be an option for those who choose...the treatment (or lack thereof) our soldiers/veterans (alive and dead) are recieving is a huge fucking snot ridden wad of spit in their face.
How can we support our troops when those who scream that mantra fail to do so themselves.
