Wounded Warrior Project Court Marshals 2 Executives Over 'Reckless Spending'

These two deserved to be "dishonorably discharged" from WWP.

Since 2003, the Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) has secured more than $160 million in benefits for military families of those severely wounded in combat. Even more impressive, more than $2 billion has been paid to them and their families.

This is a viable and crucial not-for-profit organization with huge sponsors, including Bank of America, Under Armour and Verizon.

However, all that good will and military backing is now taking a back seat to a nasty PR fail as the WWP has fired its two top executives, according to CBS News.

CBS News found Wounded Warrior Project spends 40 to 50 percent on overhead, including extravagant parties.
