NOT THE SHARPEST KNIVES IN THE DRAWER: This, A Gold Star Doesn’t Deserve
Last month, the U.S. Army's Casualty and Mortuary Affairs Operation Center sent letters to 7,000 family members of fallen soldiers that were mistakenly addressed "Dear John Doe," and the army is blaming a contractor, reports The Washington Post:
Army Chief of Staff Gen. George W. Casey Jr. is sending a personal apology letter to the 7,000 family members, Army spokesman Paul Boyce said yesterday. "Obviously, this is insensitive, and we wanted to apologize," said Boyce, adding that the Army became aware of what he called the "glitch" when several families began contacting the service in recent days.
