Welcome

The primary focus of Save Our Servicemembers (SOS)  is on the newest service members just starting their military career. However, SOS also recognizes that "non-combat" related military medical malpractice and negligent leadership decisions affect all those in uniform. As an organization, we advocate for ALL service members and their families who have been negatively affected by military medical malpractice and or negligent military leadership decisions which have resulted in serious injury and or death.  


Save Our Servicemembers, seeks accountability at all levels of military leadership, especially from those who have been carefully selected and entrusted to lead our young men and women through the start of their military career. From the time they meet with their recruiter to entering Basic Training and to their first Specialty Training School; leadership decisions are being made and are resulting in tragic, non-combat related training injuries and deaths which are unacceptable.   


The simple fact that convicted murders, rapists and child molesters in our Federal and State prison systems have more constitutional rights and better access to medical care than our active duty service members is incredibly wrong.  

 

If you or your service member suffered from military medical malpractice, negligent leadership decisions which led to a service member's serious injury and or death, please contact us for more information.

Save Our Servicemembers' Mission

 SOS is here to provide a voice for change, to better our military for the sake of our future Soldiers, Sailors, Marines, Airmen and Guardians. Our children and our loved ones deserve the best from

 "a grateful nation." 

Our Team

Our amazing community of family members, Veterans and volunteers are committed to ensuring that no future service member will ever suffer needlessly due to military medical malpractice or negligent military leadership decisions.  As a team we seek to hold all military doctors and medical professionals to highest standards of accountability, as well as those in the chain of command responsible for failed leadership decisions which have caused injury and/or death to a service member.

Our History

In the summer of 2020, Save Our Servicemembers (SOS) was founded by a group of Gold Star and military families with a loved one who either died or was seriously injured at the start of their military career.  


With so many unanswered questions and multiple obstacles, the grieving families decided to come together and push for the true accountability at the highest levels of the US Armed Forces. Unfortunately, the military has always been guarded and most details leading up to tragic events are rarely ever disclosed. In most cases, we discovered the investigations were conducted by the same military command in question. From our collective experiences, the investigations are extremely basic, narrow in scope and poorly conducted by inexperienced military investigators who claim to be overworked and fail to follow- up on key witness statements.   


Many of the military reports released to the families are nearly impossible to read, heavily redacted, missing pages and poorly printed, making it difficult to comprehend or follow the sequence of events. For most grieving families, getting to the truth has proven to be an overwhelming and impossible task. No one is an expert in requesting information from the military, let alone knowing what to ask for. There are no guide books to help grieving families navigate through all the military red tape, let alone the shocking reality of how quickly the military begins to close ranks to protect themselves.

We are Committed to:

  • Bring awareness and to challenge the "best kept open military secret" in the United States of America, The Feres Doctrine, with very limited exceptions, makes any service member from 1950 to present unable to sue the Federal Government for any reason.
  • Demand military oversight into the deaths or serious injuries of service members. 
  • Hold military leadership accountable at all levels for the death or serious injury of a service member.  
  • Ensure every service member has the same constitutional rights afforded to every person in America by equally protecting our service members from military medical malpractice and failed negligent leadership decisions. 


 "We need to expand (Feres Doctrine reform) to deal with gross negligence in  situations like this ... There is a hefty price tag that comes with it of course, but the lives that are lost are real lives".
