2. Hi, Tom. Did you notice they didn't elaborate on that story, i.e.,
Hilton's culpability? Maybe they didn't feel they had enough facts, or didn't want to tick anyone off.

3. Hilton didn't want those wounded soldiers around their guests.
The Barbara Bush approach to body counts - why should they clutter their beautiful minds with seeing the actual real world outcome - terribly disfigured and crippled veterans - of their Oil War?

4. That's my assumption as well; pretty shitty of them. I'll think twice
before going to one of their hotels, and that's why I was glad to see the story.
