Absolutely.
That's a personal thing, but it's also a leadership thing. Sometimes you have a very keen member who keeps jumping up and keeps volunteering for tours. As a leader, sometimes you have to say, “That's enough. Take care of things at home.”
What we're trying to teach are individual coping skills, these big four. They're so basic. We should be teaching them to kids in school. Ideally, our next step is to sort of take some of this stuff and introduce it into society. These are such very basic skills. Learn how to look after yourself; then, as a leader, look after your people. I think that's the key.
As a health care professional, I have nothing to do with that. When it breaks or doesn't work, I'm happy to be there, but I think the culture needs to be such that we recognize that we can burn people out. We can use them too quickly. Sometimes they're their own worst enemies. In a competitive organization, in which results get success, every once in a while you need to sort of have that pause. When you look at a lot of the differences between our stats and U.S. stats, that's the difference: six-month tours versus 12- and 15-month tours. There's a huge discrepancy in terms of how much reserve a person has and how much energy they have.
