4. I am simply stunned....How this country has failed these men

and women of the military.

How this administration so callously tosses them aside once they have used them for their war.

This is only the beginning....

My oh My...how well the outsourcing has turned out...:sarcasm:

11. When the mom was holding back tears

when discussing the room in which he was forgotten and died was difficult for me. The sadness she must have felt knowing her baby was treated with such disregard after all he attempted to do for those who disregarded him. She seemed so confused, sad and incredulous. How I wish I could hug her (them) and make it all go away.

7. Another uncounted combat death.

This guy really had faith in his country's leadership. He was so betrayed.

12. Bastards.

How could they allow that? How could they not check, not go over, not do a damn thing. They knew he was in trouble--he was there, for crying out loud.

God-damn the liars and the tin-plated heroes.

14. I'm stunned

There is a room in hell where this filth will reside forever. They are not human, nor are their masters. They will finger point until their time is up. When it is, they will beg for mercy - it will not come. They will live horrible lives, pain will be visited upon their loved ones, and they will ask "Why?" There will be no answer just like there is no answer for this wonderful family and their son.

I want to be above any kind of horrible revenge, but godammit, sometimes I just can't.

15. I saw it.I was astounded.

And the ordeal the parents went through and continues to this day.

Even though that Congressman wanted to help.

Face it, the Pentagon is out of control. There's no one there to even give a shit about fallen soldiers.

Even the VA is no help.
