Soldiers subjected to horrendous living conditions according to government report
September 28, 2023


Jeremy Wallace, Texas Political Writer
San Antonio Express-News
(TNS)

Soldiers in Texas and other parts of the country are living in barracks rife with mold, bed bugs, gas leaks and even squatters, a new government report shows.

“We found that living conditions in some military barracks may pose potentially serious risks to the physical and mental health of service members, as well as their safety,” the U.S. General Accountability Office stated in its review.

The GAO surveyed 10 barracks across the country, including Joint Base San Antonio, and found instances of raw sewage in bathrooms, broken heating and cooling systems, and in one case methane gas leaking into rooms from aging pipes. Soldiers told auditors they felt unsafe and depressed in their surroundings.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

But illegal aliens live in four and five-star hotels.  Seems fair to me. *****rollingeyes*****
