Soldier Forced to Pay for Body Armor Destroyed by Enemy
I wish I could find someone who is raising money to pay back this soldier:
The last time 1st Lt. William “Eddie� Rebrook IV saw his body armor, he was lying on a stretcher in Iraq, his arm shattered and covered in blood.It's right out of a Joseph Heller novel. (Hat Tip Hit & Run)A field medic tied a tourniquet around Rebrook’s right arm to stanch the bleeding from shrapnel wounds. Soldiers yanked off his blood-soaked body armor. He never saw it again.
But last week, Rebrook was forced to pay $700 for that body armor, blown up by a roadside bomb more than a year ago.

I don't even know what to say about this. How can you do that? How is someone suppposed to continue to fight with passion and support for their country after this? For me, the motivation would be gone if I was forced to pay for something that I lost fighting for my country.
