Walter Reed Hospital

Last week it was decided that Walter Reed Hospital was no longer worth fixing. It has shoddy outpatient conditions and is no longer a worthwhile hospital. They blame alot of it on Pentagon neglect and money woes. An Independent Review Group did urge a quick infusion of money to relieve short-term problems. America has always taken care of its wounded and this is a shame. An independent group said that the Defense Department should have been aware or was aware of the widespread problems at the hospital and neglected them. Because of this, the hospital is scheduled for eventual closure. To top it off, the Pentagon made problems even worse by ordering a hold-down on costs and expenses, even as the hospital is experiencing an influx of thousands of veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan.
