8. Just number trickery
This is the number that gets overlooked every time

"an additional 38,631 U.S. military personnel have also been removed from the battlefields in Iraq and Afghanistan for "non-hostile-related medical air transports"

These people were "removed from the battlefield" but get into the category of non-hostile-related medical air transports. This is number trickery.

What type of incident qualified this person for this special treatment?

Is there someone here who can explain this to me.

Thanks
