I don't know if this is the full story or not and I've often stuck my foot in my mouth by jumping first and asking second, but if this is true, we should all be ashamed of the government and military leadership over this matter.

Something smells fishy though, because if you read article to the end here's the phone you get:

Outraged about Army Spc. Robert Loria's plight? Speak your mind. Below are contact numbers for federal legislators and defense officials.
U.S. Senate: Hillary Clinton: 202-224-4451; Charles Schumer: 212-486-4430 email U.S. House of Representatives: Maurice Hinchey: 845-344-3211; Sue Kelly: 845-897-5200

"...as well as a $310 charge for equipment issued to Loria that was damaged or lost in the attack in Iraq."


Oh great - I just got hit by shrapnel! Now I have to buy a new vest.


(I suppose this $310 charge means "take care of your stuff and don't sell it on the street.")
