It would seem that our administration has found one more way to pass  
the cost of the Iraq war unto the soldiers and families of our  
service people.
The soldiers that I personally know who have served in close combat  
went through a life changing experience, because some of their  
buddies went through a life ending experience.  For the military to  
deny them benefits to "make them whole" or to help them come back is  
pretty slimy.

So, what is so wrong with caring for our people?  If a 20 minute  
evaluation is sufficient to weed out soldiers with a "personality  
disorder", perhaps that should be done in boot camp to save us the  
problem of doing it later after they have been in combat.  Unless, of  
course, it is being done because people who have been in combat are  
transformed by the experience, and that they do develop personality  
disorders because of their combat experience.
