U.S. ARMY APOLOGIZES FOR ASKING DECEASED OFFICERS TO REENLIST

The U.S. Army said that it will apologize to the families of the deceased officers that it mistakenly sent reenlistment letters to in December. "Unfortunately, the database used to address those letters contained names of officers who were killed in action," the Army said. "The President would like the families to know that after careful consideration, he has decided not to penalize the late officers for their tardy replies. However, he said next time he won't be as lenient.”
