This is a pretty big one. The Secretary of the Army has just resigned in wake of the scandal:

Army Secretary Francis J. Harvey resigned Friday as the Bush administration struggled to cope with the fallout from a scandal over substandard conditions for wounded Iraq soldiers at Walter Reed Army Medical Center.

The surprise move came one day after Harvey fired the two-star general in charge of the medical center in response to disclosures of problems at the hospital compound.

On Monday Henry Waxman, chairman of the House Oversight committee is holding a hearing on the growing scandal. He has subpoenaed General Weightman to testify:

Chairman Henry A. Waxman and Subcommittee Chairman John Tierney sent a letter to Major General George W. Weightman, former Commander of Walter Reed Army Medical Center, regarding the privatization of support services at Walter Reed and its impact on the conditions at Walter Reed. In addition, the Committee is issuing a subpoena to compel Major General Weightman to appear before the Committee on Monday, March 5.

Things are moving along to fix this disgrace, however we need to know why it was allowed to go one for so long. Who didn’t report the problems and who tried to hide them? Those are the money questions right now.
