IF some guys just can't 'kill' someone, can't they put them in another area of the force where they can do other kind of work? I am just wondering what I'd do if I joined and then when it came down to it, I couldn't pull the trigger to save my own life. I would hope they would put me somewhere else in the unit where I could still help out somehow. Don't flame me, I'm just wondering if this happens.....

Yep like KP or burning the drums under the latrine, guard duty, permament CQ runner. I could find lots jobs for this 'Hero' to do.

When I got done he would be glad to go back to combat.
