Hardly news, I agree. But, what about the timing of this "revelation?"
Comgresscritters have been receiving complaints for decades, why the sudden interest when they have ignored it for so long?
Because it conveniently fits into the cause of
A. Making the military look bad
while at the same time
B. Making those who choose to be in the military as a bunch of hapless victims
Not that I don't think the military of this country doesn't deserve better healthcare options, because I most certainly do. However, these things never come up unless it works for the MSN agenda at the time.

When I got my medical discharge from the Navy, the doc said, "Son, I'm a weekend warrior as I was drafted, but straight from the hip:
"I know that check from Sam is needed, for they owe you a hell of a lot more than that, a lot more. But, you'll be with the VA, and Son, man to man, off the record, they'll KILL YOU, SON! Please listen."
