“Chaptered Out”: US Military Seeks to Balance Budget on Backs of Disabled Veterans
Chaptering out is a practice in the military where wounded soldiers are dishonorably discharged falsely so the military does not have to pay them benfits. I think this topic is linked to the fact that the pentagons budget is terrible and cant be audited because it has horrible records, and I might investigate that as well to see if there is any cross information.

I chose this topic because I honestly had no idea it was happening, it was the topic that surprised me most, and I know alot of people who are veterans who I could ask about the topic. I think its a disgusting practice that I want to investigate further.
The profound lack of reporting on this method of discharge from military service is troubling to say the least. Your class presentation brought to light many aspects I know readers would like find astounding and enlightening. I was looking for the link to the originating article. I think it is this one from Project Censored: http://www.projectcensored.org/25-chaptered-us-military-seeks-balance-budget-backs-disabled-veterans/
