3000 bucks is cheap.

The Robertses say the VA did not approve of them going outside the system.
But I bet a Senator or Congress persons Insurance card is excepted anywhere. Such a Bull$hit system the vets have to deal with when they come back.

$3000 is cheap? The soldier shouldn't have been charged at all since this was due to combat related wounds.....

I've been waiting for over 3yrs for my disability to go through, then last week I get a letter from the VA saying my shit was "mishandled" (basically lost) now I get to do it all over again!

Keeps the saying true;

"I love the F'n Army, because the Army loves F'n me"

Yep, this is getting out of hand. The "all mighty" budget is not the only thing this new administration needs to be thinking about....

I bet the guy on top of the bullshit would not have the nuts or audacity to face this soldier and tell him they are not going to pay. They have to send letters or tell it via phone. I hate the fact soldiers are over there but being they are TAKE CARE OF THEM

Wonder how much the government spends on wounded Iraqi's.

No Soldier should ever have to pay for medical whether it was War inflicted or not, they should never have to pay taxes either. I have said it before and I will say it again, Thank You to those of you who have, are, or will serve.

Its not Private Healthcare. Its the F#*#ing Army. He is a Hero and should be treated as such. This should never have happened. It is the same as getting hurt on the joba dn workmans comp saying you have to pay for it

I think the word hero is thrown around a bit much these days.

It does suck that he has to pay 3 grand... but why doesn't the army pay the 3 grand? shouldn't that be how it works anyways?
