"He had been in college for three years before he was recruited."

This begs a question. Casey Sheehan was in the 101st Airborne Division (Airmobile). Was he an airmobile infantryman or did he have a combat support MOS? If he was indeed an airmobile infantry soldier, that busts Cindy right there. Infantry soldiers are highly motivated and dedicated. Further, the last time I heard, those soldiers assigned to the 101st Airborne Division have to go through the Air Assault course. It's very demanding, and not for the faint of heart. I'm getting the vibes that Casey was a great soldier, and would no doubt have made a career of the army. It's too bad he had the misfortune to have a moonbat for a mother.

I've read he wanted to be a chaplain, but there were no openings, so he became a Humvee mechanic. I do not know if that is true.

If he was Airborne, wouldn't he have had to volunteer twice? Once just to join the Army, the second time to go Airborne? Puts the lie to her 'they duped him' statement.
