Critic Cautiously Optimistic About Changes In Army Medical Care
August 20, 2007 5:42 PM
Andrew Pogany, an investigator with the national non-profit group Veterans For America, has vocally and persistently complained that soldiers with combat-related mental health problems at Ft. Carson have been mistreated and received sub-standard care. Some, he says, have been kicked out of the army on trumped up charges when what they really needed was behavior health treatment.
But he says recent changes at Ft. Carson have good potential to help rectify the situation.
"I think it's probably one of the best things that has come up out of this entire dilemma and all these problematic issues that have surfaced over the past 4 years," says Pogany.
