Bush Supports the Troops Again
Case Workers for Wounded Laid Off
Defense Department officials have laid off most of their case workers who help severely injured service members, sources said. The case workers for the Military Severely Injured Center serve as advocates for wounded service members who have questions or issues related to benefits, financial resources and their successful return to duty or reintegration into civilian life - all forms of support other than medical care. The center officially opened in February 2005, with its primary offices in Arlington, Va., but also hired advocates at hospitals around the country.
