that's kind of a sad post. you think if someone drinks or smokes, they need not apply?

perhaps we are recruiting in the wrong places. we ought to set up shop outside the theology schools. maybe we could just have big old debates instead of war?

oh wait, that's what the un is for....that didn't work well, did it?

i guess if you reduce stress enough by not training hard, or giving "time out" cards, or not YELLING at the poor kids, then no stress relief is needed?

You were a HM1? Well you saw the basket cases then. Likely compared to the ship population a very small number. For those who don't know what HM means it means Hospital Corpsman IIRC. He would be the among the first to deal with the severe drunk upon arrival back at the ship.
