Ubi bene ibi patria
"WASHINGTON — President Bush visited wounded U.S. troops Thursday and praised the treatment they’re receiving at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, where shoddy conditions prompted him to create a presidential panel earlier this year on veterans care.

Bush met with 33 troops who were wounded in Iraq and Afghanistan, and awarded Purple Hearts to four of them. Bush, who also visited wounded troops this week at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Md., said Walter Reed recorded the lowest number of admissions this past month since 2002."
