Some Iowa soldiers will be in trouble when they return from Iraq.
The Iowa National Guard says it will punish 21 soldiers who failed drug tests before being sent overseas.
The Des Moines Register reports the soldiers will be discharged dishonorably. The troops were not discharged or put through rehab at the time of the drug tests.
Guard officials say that's because deployment schedules didn't allow for it.
