Righting A Wrong - Is not $725

Imprisoned for what he did not do. Branded for he was not. Made to suffer for a life time. Is $725 enough compensation?

Samuel Snow was imprisoned back in 1944. Fifteen months later he was release. He returned home where he worked as a janitor. Today, at 63 he received a slap in the face instead of justice.

The $725 is just for pay while he was imprisoned. No adjustments for the years it was withheld. Any non-government business would be forced to pay interest and penalties.

What about a lifetime of suffering a wrong? What about the US government admitting and standing up for the truth, and justice?

Today, Mr Snow name is not officially cleared. Medical benefits and retirement pay are withheld because of his discharge status has not be reversed. A veteran of WWII, caught in the wrong place at the wrong time is made to pay.

What would do if you were caught in this situation?
