I'll make it a fast question.
Thank you.
It occurs to me that we treat soldiers who die in action quite a bit differently than those who are hurt in action. In that group, those who suffer “between the two ears”, to use your expression, versus those who lose a limb or what have you are subgrouped again.
When a young man or woman enters the military, is he or she told ahead of time what the odds are that you could end up in action, here's what could happen, and here's what we'll do for you?
