1. "no soldier left behind"
These kids have a greater sense of honor than the people whose job it is to take care of them. I don't know whether it's fair to blame the paper-pushers themselves--they're overwhelmed with the caseload due to the war--but it is entirely fair to blame those who make budget decisions about their care.

This is a long article but a jaw-dropper and it should be sent to anybody who still believes that the current administration supports the troops in any way.

Just heartbreaking. The neglect of the soldiers who've risked their lives--not just their literal lives but their family lives and everything else to do with their way of life, like having good health--is shameful. This kind of article should be on the front page of every newspaper in the United States every day.
