Three months after the Army punished several senior officers following an independent investigation into the climate and culture at the Fort Hood Army base in Texas prompted by the killing of 20-year-old soldier Vanessa Guillen and deaths of several other service members, the investigators who carried out the review will appear before Congress on Tuesday.
