"Soldiers at Walter Reed Army Medical Center’s Medical Hold Unit say they have been told they will wake up at 6 a.m. every morning and have their rooms ready for inspection at 7 a.m., and that they must not speak to the media."
"Soldiers say their sergeant major gathered troops at 6 p.m. Monday to tell them they must follow their chain of command when asking for help with their medical evaluation paperwork, or when they spot mold, mice or other problems in their quarters"
"The soldiers said they were also told their first sergeant has been relieved of duty, and that all of their platoon sergeants have been moved to other positions at Walter Reed."
A truly wonderful way of supporting the troops. Horrible conditions uncovered at a major medical facility? The Pentagon's response: lock up the folks that are paying the price for Bush's Folly and see to it that their words are filtered. A wonderful place thê U.S. is becoming under the current administration. Not.
A tip of my Jersey hat to Silver Owl (in the comments) for the link and to nitpicker for the link to the Navy Times article.
