12. No she didn't
When she was on leave, any political talk upset her--(My father is a right wing nut and we get into shouting matches)When she was here we went and had a nice weekend at the coast. She began to talk about just day to day life, you know, little anecdotal stuff. I was horrified. The memorials for dead soldiers, her "guys" soldiers she's in charge of being called up for casket carrying duty. A soldier with a ruined face from a land mine. The medics who literally have to decide who is going to live and who is going to die out in the field, because of lack of supplies/staff/time and how that fucks them up. I wanted to vomit. I've worked with PTSD patients, and I think we are going to see a lot of severe cases when (please God when) this is over.
