Back at the V.A.

Curious what our troops are facing when they come back here after getting injured in Iraq and Afghanistan? Corrente describes an article from Harper's about the V.A.'s funding issues and the unusual trauma faced by troops in these new fronts here. What's causing the high injury rate is ingenuity - of both the bastards who plant IEDs to kill women, children and soldier alike, and of the heroic field doctors who save lives that would probably be lost 40, 50 or 60 years ago.
