Did you get your "John Doe" letter yet?

Asked by bristolbaby (503points) January 11th, 2009

The Army mistakenly sent letters addressed “Dear John Doe” to 7,000 family members of soldiers who died in Iraq and Afghanistan, unleashing calls from troubled relatives and prompting a formal apology yesterday from the Army’s top general.

According to Army sources, a civilian contractor with “poor quality control” made a very big mistake when printing letters to be delivered to people who lost a soldier in Iraq or Afghanistan.

Ouch!
