This turns my stomach

If this is factual, I am heartbroken. I have given years assisting disabled Veterans. I once went to an event at the Wounded Warrior Barracks in Camp Pendleton, CA. Their was a 19 year old Marine and his wife there, the Marine was the victim of an IED, he had lost both of his legs and part of his right arm. I thought about the long hard road this couple had ahead of them. I think about it often and would stand shoulder to shoulder with him any day. Semper fi!!

I spoke with one of the kindest persons I have ever met, a cleaning lady at this same barracks. She talked about "her babies" and how she cared for them. She stated that, some of these young Marines don't even get visits from family and friends. What the hell kind of country do we live in?
