Amputee barred from Walter Reed hearing.

Washington Post’s Dana Milbank writes, “Before yesterday’s hearing, a patient with a prosthetic arm tried to get in but was stopped by a guard, who asked if the young man was supposed to be in the hearing. ‘I’d like to be,’ the soldier said. ‘It’s preselected, unfortunately,’ the guard replied. The young amputee walked away. Inside, three rows of seats had been reserved for the Army; almost all were empty.”
