    Darth Cheney says they volunteered, so what's to worry about? I mean, sure, he's a draft dodger but he's the vice president so he should know that stress doesn't affect the American soldier! Medical evidence and tactical necessity be damned!

    How come no one thought of the tag Darth Cheney earlier? It's so perfect.

    You'd think the thread title would win the "No Shit" award of the year, but with that gaggle, you gotta wonder if they're just now discovering this.

    Wasn't there a discussion the other day about how that gaggle is either underestimating the problem or just not giving a shit about the grunt in the field?

    I just can't wait to see if anyone here somehow finds a way to argue this.

    The amount of PTSD that has apparently gone untreated is a damn shame.
