#1 In the eyes of the Washington establishment, we are all "deplorable" criminals.

#2 I see the military is really working hard on meeting their recruitment goals.

But what a sickening feeling, these volunteer soldiers who raised their right arm being betrayed like this.

Need any more reasons why this US of A is going to shit?

#3 ...Well, one can't possibly expect the 0's who approved and oversaw the program to be held responsible now, can you...?

#4 ^

Shortly after the first Gulf War the question of what would be Gulf War Syndrome surfaced. The Army was tasked to investigate. They appointed a board/team to do the work. They did it with Temporary Duty (TDY) assignment. In service terms that meant it had to be done in 180 days. Working backward from day 180 and calculating all the organizing and staffing of the team, collecting data, sending out the preliminary report, getting feedback and then do a second rewrite and staffing with everyone who gets a say as in 'Mother May I', left about 30 days to do actual work. Totally insufficient as it required subsequent follow ups to CYWP. Anyone mindful of the Agent Orange debacle should have known not to do that, but they did. It's the damn bureaucracy of the institution.
