The crap getting pulled in DC just continues to amaze me…

Having eaten in the Warriors Cafe, it is the ONLY facility at Walter Reed/Bethesda that is actually accessible to them. To close it on the weekends and restrict the hours are bad enough, but  THIS just beyond the pale, and I have to point this one straight at Gen Dempsey, CJCS and SECDEF Hagel.  Are you two REALLY willing to go down this road?  Have you truly drank that much koolaid from the administration???

Insult to Injury: Wounded Warriors Snubbed at Walter Reed Dining Hall

“In a disturbing revelation about the treatment of America’s most severely wounded troops, Fox News has learned the military earlier this month decided to invalidate meal tickets and reduce hours for the sole dining facility in the Walter Reed building where they are recovering.

The decision affects the Warrior Cafe located inside building 62, home to all multiple amputees and long-term, recovering patients at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Md.

The decision would mean wounded warriors who would normally have a government-funded meal just down the hall would have to walk, wheel or limp nearly a half-mile across the Walter Reed campus to the temporary “food trailer” for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

“I mean it’s called the Warrior Cafe, you would think it is for us,” said Sgt. Josh Wetzel, who lost both his legs when he stepped on a pressure plate IED outside Kandahar, Afghanistan in May 2013. He’s been recovering at Walter Reed since and has been a daily customer at the cafe.

WTFO??? Sigh…  Supposedly having the Wounded Warriors use their meal tickets at the cafe was “Misappropriation” of funds???   YGTBSM!!!

Edit- Thanks to Les, apparently now that publicity has hit, things have been or are being changed to go back to allowing the WW folks to use the Cafe.
