How about a story about the many troops who don't report to sick call right before deployment because they are afraid of being held back?

I can't be the only one who knows about these guys.

You're not the only one, but that's too patriotic a view, bnelson. We can't have that. This is a Republican administration. Now get with the program!

To answer your question, I've known many Soldiers over the years that avoid sick call or downplay their broken bones and keep on marching. The vast majority of Soldiers are proud to serve their country. Hell, we've got a lot of non-citizens who are proud to serve our country...these are two great stories that need to be followed accurately.
