Lost your arm in Iraq? The Army wants your leg as well.

The Army is billing wounded soldiers for everything under the sun (broken refridgerator tray?!), and then sending them to collections when they can't pay.

They complain about how outdated their billing system is, but there's a simple solution: stop sending soldiers to collections, period, until you have your shit together and figure out a way to get billing and personnel information integrated.

In fact, just stop sending bills to soldiers at all. Stop billing them for housing, stop billing them for food, for medical care, for travel. Just fucking stop it.
