Horror Hospital: The Most Shocking Photos And Testimony From The Dawood Military Hospital Scandal

An explosive Congressional investigation revealed horrific new details this week about a U.S. funded military hospital in Afghanistan that kept patients in "Auschwitz-like" conditions.
The investigation also revealed that Lt. General William B. Caldwell, then commander of the $11.2 billion dollar a year Afghan training program, tried to block the probe and ordered a cover-up.
There are currently two ongoing investigations looking into the Dawood Military Hospital abuses: one centered around the Military Whistleblower Protection Act, the other concerned with Caldwell’s politically-motivated decision to delay investigations into the hospital until after the 2010 elections.
What follows is a very disturbing look inside the Dawood National Military Hospital. It was compiled with sworn eye-witness testimony from the three U.S. Army colonels who blew the whistle on the scandal, as well as never-before published photos obtained by BuzzFeed.
The photos and corresponding descriptions were collected by U.S. military personnel in Afghanistan.

It's too varied to paint a single picture.

I've seen the worst and the best our military has to offer throughout my deployments.

Hopefully people will be charged and imprisoned for life for this shyt. This is a disgrace.

I read the statement

it looks like what's happening is that a mafia style organization in afghanistan is taking huge amounts of coalition & us money, pilfering resources, getting nurses and doctors hired and not letting them get fired and meanwhile on the side using the money and equipment to run their own private health businesses(!)

so ... the wrongdoing by the US / coalition forces seems less about not delivering healthcare directly, more about neglecting and not being able to deal with the local criminal networks that can't be touched/prosecuted. So they should have been more aggressive about asking the hospital manager what's going on or replacing him etc
