AR delegation today urged DoD to complete the report required by law to review eligibility of the Purple Heart for victims of the 2009 attack at Fort Hood, Texas, that killed 13 and wounded 32 individuals, and the 2009 attack outside of a Little Rock, Arkansas military recruiting station that claimed the life of Private William Andrew Long and wounded Private Quinton Ezeagwula. The delay in this report and DoD’s insistence that these brave men and women do not deserve the honor of being awarded the Purple Heart has denied these service members and their families essential benefits that are provided to Purple Heart recipients. As members of the Armed Forces, we find this continued inaction by the DoD disgraceful, as well as unlawful, and we urge DoD to complete this report and honor these men and women with the award they have earned. #ar2 tinyurl/olltvwc
