SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (Jan. 10) - After serving a year in Iraq, Army Reserve Spc. Patrick Rogalin came home and found that everything he had put in a storage locker - essentially everything he owned - had been sold.
Several payments for the locker had bounced because someone emptied his checking account while he was gone.
"It's really insulting, after all I went through over there serving my country, to come back and have to deal with this," Rogalin said.

Now
that is truly disgusting! I have very few words to describe that sick-to-my-stomach feeling.

So this would all be O.K. if she were an American citizen? It seems like someone wants to fan some flames. (Not you, Mixie, the orignal poster). I feel bad for the guy, but there was no way to access information to your checking account? I thought they had the internet over in Iraq. Wouldn't it have been possible for him to check on his account during a four month period? I really can't find fault with the storage company. I'll admit, it wasn't very nice of them, but unless they knew he was in Iraq, they've got a business to run, and dead-beats don't pay the bills.
