"Why didn't the DoD explain to their Commanders that the anthrax vaccine patent and facility are primarily owned by the government, that military researchers were instrumental in the patent and the license amendments, and that military researchers in DoD laboratories are the ones that have routinely used the anthrax vaccine?"

Bottom-line (LAST PAGE)
"Institutional tendencies to protect policies and the chain of command have promoted a seriously questionable force protection initiative instead of protecting the troops that are the object of the policy. In the meantime, ill troops are abandoned, healthy troops are punished, and the integrity of the military institution is tarnished. External from the DoD, this smear on our militaries' integrity occurred through false testimony to Congress and inaccurate reporting to the American media. Internal within the DoD, an aggressive propaganda campaign of subtle misrepresentations and half-truths to the nation's subordinate military commanders and troops has replaced the trust and integrity essential to command. Clearly, the Congress recognizes that the DoD "did not intend to mislead or confuse people," initially, but regardless, DoD officials must now immediately and unilaterally end the AVIP, care for the inoculated ill, and expunge all punishments. Otherwise, Congress will be compelled to intervene, exercising its oversight authority and responsibility as the elected legislators for the American people."
