On the recordNovember 6, 2003
I thank Senator Bond for his leadership on veterans issues throughout this Congress, as he always does. I have been over to Walter Reed Army Hospital on three different occasions. Families tell me they are being treated extremely well. The soldiers are very complimentary of the health care they have received, but there have been some problems. It is important we make sure every soldier injured in the service of the United States of America be given the best medical care, wherever he or she is in this country. I salute Senator Bond for his work in that regard. We want to make sure that happens. I believe it is happening, at least in the areas I have personally examined. We will continue to monitor them.
