So, this guy gets blamed for losing gear someone else apparently either stole or lost, tries to be a good guy about it, and now the unit is “looking into options” about getting his money back?
I’m thinking it’s time for someone to administer a few sharp kicks up the backside to get this resolved. At the very least, give the guy a payday advance to cover his bills until the screw-up is fixed.
This is just wrong.
This is something the Army has been screwing up for a decade. This is the kind of activity that somebody should have put a stop to a long time ago.
