AMERICA'S military heroes are being failed by the disgraceful Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), according to a bombshell government report exclusively obtained by The National ENQUIRER!
From shocking incidents of bribery and fraud to disturbing lapses in medical protocol, a dossier from the department's internal watchdog - the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) mismanagement, errors identified and outright criminality plaguing the nation's nearly 1,300 VA facilities!
In one shameful incident, a pharmacy technician stole $8.2 million in HIV medication from the East Orange VA Medical Center in New Jersey, and at VA Harbor Healthcare System in New York, a vet choked to death after a nurse fed him too large a piece of chicken!
"It's an outrage," veterans advocate Derrick lozzio tells The ENQUIRER. "In my opinion, the VA has been doing a good job only of putting up a whitewash over the generally poor care they are providing veterans."
lozzio insists "we owe them better than what the VA has been giving them" because these brave men and women were willing to sacrifice their lives for our country.
Jeremy Parkins, who runs the Ohio-based veterans outreach organization Dress Right Dress, says the OIG's report shows a "systematic breakdown" in the quality of care.
The stunned Air Force veteran says, "We served and then come home, and we have to worry about the level of medical care we receive?"
