War Wounded Toll Soars

The VA has scandalously been hiding their own estimates of the number of wounded from the twin wars, now bringing on a financial emergency due to the upcoming fiscal years starting October 1. As recently as April the VA leaders lied and told their supervisory House committee that they had plenty of money. Why did they hide these costs? Because they were caused by a quadrupling of the estimate of wounded soldiers that will need care. The estimate has gone from 23,500 to 103,000.
