Now some REMF will demand that he return his pay for that year Iraq. After all, he really had already resigned.
Too bad about Doc Daneeka. (As you may recall he lost his billet, pay and military existence because, on paper, he was dead. He lived on hand outs and slept in halls.)
"I'm sorry, captain, we'd like to discharge you, but since you were already discharged, you'll have to stay in Iraq another year. If you were killed that might be a change in status and then we could do something for you. Oh, please don't get seriously injured, because technically sir, you're not eligible for treatment in a military facility. You're not drawing sep-rats, are you, sir? (Why do I always get the troublemakers?) Have a nice day!"
