I think that most (if not all) of this is on the Army.
They give these guys clean bills of health whenever they possibly can to save the cost of proper care.

This guy is a 38 year old Sergeant and probably a damn good one.
The kind of guy that looked after his charges and saw to it that they got home in one piece.
Those in charge of re-deployments would give the red carpet to a combat-tested non-com requesting to go back.

At the White House, a stern Obama said "we will make sure that anybody who is involved is held fully accountable with the full force of the law."

Some General was quoted as saying the death penalty may apply in this case.

That's just WRONG IMO.

That sounds like a bunch of crap meant for local Afghani consumption.
They need to look at the system that failed to look after this Sergeant.


A terrible thing happened that night, there's no doubt about that.
Terrible things happen in war.
