Taking back the bonuses is a fantastic idea, a necessary step considering bonuses are supposed to be rewards for GOOD work.

Casey said the Pentagon should fine KBR

Fine them? Why hasn't someone FIRED them? Maybe then they could bother to hire a contractor who won't provide soldiers with contaminated food and water and who won't perform work so shoddy that it kills. Then there are those tax dodges and overcharges...

Better yet, why can't the military go back to assigning cooks, truck drivers, laundry services, etc. from its own ranks rather than paying for expensive outside contracts? Why isn't the Army Corps of Engineers taking care of electrical and other skilled construction work for its own soldiers?
