Shafting the Troops, Part 3

Wounded vets continue to have payroll problems according to ABC New's The Blotter: "...In an interview earlier this year, the Commander of the United States Army Finance Command told ABC News that wounded soldiers like Kelly will no longer be reported to credit bureaus or have debt collectors sent them.

But the payroll problems continued. A few months after our interview, the General Accounting Office released a report saying hundreds of soldiers have been wrongly saddled with debt.

The Finance Command has not responded to requests made by ABC News for an update on efforts to fix the payroll problems."

Just damn peachy.
