"What we see is a pattern ... that we have seen going back to the days of atomic testing, Agent Orange, depleted uranium, Persian Gulf illness, traumatic brain injury, post traumatic stress disorder, suicide, homelessness. The pattern is deny, deny, deny. Then when facts seemingly come to disagree with the denial, you cover up, cover up, cover up. Then, when the cover-up doesn't work anymore you admit a little bit and underplay the problem. And then, finally, you admit it's a problem, and then way after the fact, you try to come to grips with it. We have seen it again and again and again. If that isn't criminal negligence, then what is?".....
