I have had several posts about the electrocution of American soldiers in Iraq while taking a shower.
Last year, 94 troops stationed in Iraq, Afghanistan or other Central Command countries sought medical treatment for electric shock, according to Defense Department health data. KBR’s database lists 231 electric shock incidents in the more than 89,000 facilities the company runs in Iraq, according to military records.

The military is racing to inspect more than 90,000 U.S.-run facilities across Iraq to reduce a deadly threat troops face far off the battlefield: electrocution or shock while showering or using appliances.
The Defense Contract Management Agency has accepted KBR’s plans to corect the problems, according to the document the AP obtained. It said the agency will closely oversee KBR’s work.

Cool, KBR gets the contract to unscrew that which they have screwed up.  If they are responsible should not it be part of their standing contract to guarantee their work or replace it?  If not, why not?

I guess that the no bid contracts have their advantages after all.  They can get paid for screwing up something and then on the backside get paid to fix their screw up…not a bad gig if you can get it.  Now I know why everyone scrambles to get government contracts.
