I would like to tell everyone of my experience at Walter Reed Hospital last week-end. As part of the "Gathering of The Eagles" in DC I can tell you that what the Chaplin is saying is true. We (Swiftboat Vets) met in DC for the anti-war protest (force protection of the Memorials) along with many thousands more concerned vets. On Fri. nite we went to Walter Reed to visit with the wounded soldiers. We visited with the people that run Operation Street Corner and as many wounded as posible. ALL of the soldiers told us that they had been treated as good or better in Walter Reed than in any other hospital, including private hospitals.
We got to talk to the XO of the hospital and he promised that this would blow over quick. He said that there were problems in parts of the hospital that hadn't been used in years. The reason they were being used were as the chaplin stated, overcrowded, and under bedded.
It is time that the quiet America starts to be heard. The liberal media is going to ruin our country. If you could have seen the anti-war protesters and what they said, you would be en-raged. These are the people that the media protects and prints about. A large percentage of the protesters were kids 15 and below, many looked like street people that were there for a free meal. Their leaders do not care about the people or our country.
It is time to stand up and be heard.
