In the corporate world, sure. But in the military you can’t just resign, and, this was a impressionable young person far junior in rank. Her superiors had a duty of care to set the example and not cave to impulse, and they failed her.
I'm not excusing her superiors by any means.....after all she's dead. But I gotta say the military hierarchy has missed things before because you're still dealing with people not robots. I don't know if you ever saw the Interrogation of former Col. Russell Williams - The Confession - the fifth estate.......Though Canadian he had everybody fooled.....and the Commanders were so troubled that they missed he was a serial killer.
The story and Interrogation is mesmerizing, I stayed up almost all night because it's a can't stop watching story.
Well worth the watch as other Freepers will attest to.
