"Your medical condition prevents satisfactory performance of duty"



baloney.
if the guy wants to reup... let him take a job where he can still do something useful... BDA might be good, or intelligence, or computer net maintenance.

bush said these guys could reup.
they should be allowed to reup... even if it is as a paper pusher at some base in the midwest, or overseeing national guard deploys or whatever...

they could learn to speak read and translate farsii so the rest of us won't have to.

"A civil affairs specialist with a master’s degree, fluency in Russian"

No use? Watch, the US will train another GI at ten times the cost.
