From Yahoo:

A Cedarburg man said the Pentagon is covering up his son’s death.

Army Spc. Stephen Castner was killed in July of 2006 when his Humvee hit a roadside bomb

An initial investigation into Castner’s death cleared the Army of any wrongdoing and now a new report is backing that up.

But his father said that’s not true.

He said his son might still be alive if the military had provided the correct training and equipment.

When the Army first concluded it did nothing wrong, Castner appealed to the inspector general.

This week, it ruled there was no reason to reopen the Army investigation.

The inspector general acknowledges that Army investigators made inaccurate statements, but said those statements did not affect the outcome of the report.

Castner disagreed.

“Stephen’s death illustrates the lack of preparedness, the lack of regard for the lives of the soldiers,” Steve Castner said.

Castner said he plans to appeal to the inspector general and ask for a new report.
