Staff Sgt. Ryan D. Maseth with his mother, Cheryl Harris. Sergeant Maseth, a Green Beret, was electrocuted while taking a shower in an Army compound in Baghdad three months ago. The bulletin, with the headline “The Unexpected Killer,” was issued after the horrific deaths of two soldiers who were caught in water — one in a shower, the other in a swimming pool — that was suddenly electrified after poorly grounded wiring short-circuited.Once again Kellogg, Brown and Root, a subsidiary until just recently of Dick Cheney's employer, Halliburton, has been exposed for not only ripping off U.S. taxpayers but also of now, killing our own.
“We’ve had several shocks in showers and near misses here in Baghdad, as well as in other parts of the country,” Frank Trent, an expert with the Army Corps of Engineers, wrote in the bulletin. “As we install temporary and permanent power on our projects, we must ensure that we require contractors to properly ground electrical systems.”
Since that warning, at least two more American soldiers have been electrocuted in similar circumstances. In all, at least a dozen American military personnel have been electrocuted in Iraq, according to the Pentagon and Congressional investigators."
And all of the phony patriots on the 'right' will say nothing.
