My son is doing a second 15 month tour out of Fort Carson. If my son came to to live in filth like this I would do exactly the same as this father did. Treating our Soldiers like this is an insult to their Service to our Country. - Reply to this comment
- I bet this father embarrassed his son to make a political point.

- No, this isnt Bushes fault, the fault falls on the US Army for not taking care of things. You can bet their offices and officers quarters were in better condition then the barracks were. They dont need new barrakcs they need to take care of what they have. Thats is something else wrong with this country. Spend billions on new buildings instead of taking care of what they have. Maybe they need new people incharge of these places, the ones in charge now dot seem to be doing their jobs.

Whats the difference the way you vote? THEY will put the party THEY want in anyway. If THEY don''t get the popular vote they will use SUPERVOTERS.
By the way I am a God fearing, peace loving DEMO. - Reply to this comment

Snipes Castle is now gone (sad sigh). You are correct in that we always kept it clean. However, I''m not so sure that ''we'' would have been able to fix a failing sewer system without having to tear down half the building.

You are barking up the wrong tree.
I generally agree with your statements, but not the last hurled at me. Please sing a different tune and change your record. Hitler was a long time ago as I remember, used to listen to his broadcast. Spent 4 yrs. US service during Korean war. I was in Baghdad when you were in dadsbag.

You may have missed the new Nazis here in America being of the Repug party .... IMO, i think it''s just his way of labelling Repugs. Some of us use NeoCOn and others like me really prefer REPUG. Cheers! - Reply to this comment

- Oh Please, Blaming Bush as if the barracks we''ren''t in horrible condition when Clinton the *** was Prez. You people are pathetic crybabies!

- It''s no surprise that such conditions are occurring under the watch of our incompetent "commander-in-chief" George W. Bush. Not only has he needlessly put our troops in harms way for the debacle in Iraq, he has also ignored their basic needs, whether it be body armor, proper equipment, or medical or psychiatric assistance when they return. It''s clear that tax breaks for the wealthy and no-bid contracts for Halliburton are the priority. "W" clearly stands for the worst president in U.S. history.

If we are going to pay these young men to be Janitors then the risk to them should be FOR Janitors. If we are going to train them to operate the most advanced weapons system''s in the world, they need to be focused on just that... YOU are obviously a nazi bootlicker who can find NO wrong with the "Party" or your fuhrer!! Now sing out so Darth can hear you!! SIEG HEIL BUSH!! Dumb as a box of rocks folks... that''s all that''s left for Bush! - Reply to this comment

- "Nothing is too good for our troops". An ''NOTHING'' is all the soldiers and sailors of the U.S. have ever received from our government.

- I cannot believe that our American soldiers have to come back to something like this. After living in the conditions they have had to indure for 15 months that is just a disgrace. My son was with the 82nd Airborne out of Fort Bragg and served 2 tours out of that command and now is on his third tour out of Fort Riley. I hope that he or any of his fellow soldiers never come back to anything like that now or in the future. I will do exactly what Ed Frawley did. A comment was made that the media made a mountain out of a mole hill. They need to. No one should ever have to be put through that! I would like that person to have to live in what our soldiers have to live through daily.
