http://www.cnn.com/2008/US/09/29/recruiters.suicide/index.htmlThe U.S. Army is establishing a suicide prevention board to examine the mental health of its recruiters around the country after the fourth suicide in three years by Houston, Texas-based recruiters, according to Army officials.
The Army Recruiting Command is examining recruiters all over the country for job-related and combat-related stress.
The board will look at how to handle the high-stress climate facing recruiters who may be both under pressure from their job and victims of post-combat deployment stress, according to Douglas Smith, a spokesman from the U.S. Army Recruiting command.
Putting combat theater Vets into recruiting jobs is bad business as far as I am concerned. My Lady's son was recruited by an Iraq theater Vet, and I am still not convinced she told him the truth.
