Troops Hurt In Iranian Blast Say They’re Waiting Months For Treatment, Injuries Are Being Downplayed
One soldier's wounds from the March 1 drone attack included a damaged left vertebral artery, which supplies blood to the brain. The Army did not consider that serious enough to be admitted to Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany, AP reported, and instead he was told to schedule outpatient appointments. In another instance, a soldier who had shrapnel removed from his head told AP he waited more than four months for his MRI results.
