Copy of the popular video on the net right now showing how soldiers are living. I am a Fort Hood solider and can confirm that conditions like these are common and I have personally lived in barracks like these. Today we had our rooms inspected (which consisted of the sergeant major yelling us) so I guess people are writing about this. This is unacceptable even for 1 yr (people act like that is not a long time!) Imagine your apartment complex moving you here while you wait for a new complex to be built. Would you have a problem with it?? These guys just went through living hell (no hot water, living in tents, pissing in tubes) for a year only to come back to this.

I have gotten emails from soldiers all over this country confirming that this has been going on a long time. Let the politicians know that soldiers deserve better.
I have been getting reports from all over Fort Hood about soldiers weekends being taken away and having to stay until 8pm or later (work starts at 6:30am) because of this. Email Fort Hood and tell them not to keep soldiers late and take away their weekends they should be spending with their families.
