Hartford Courant: A Recruiter's Guilt

[DODI]

I thought this was an interesting article. It appeared on the front page of our major newspaper on Sunday.

1. It is indeed an interesting article

And I predict that the subject, SSgt Rush, will need counseling when his time in the military is up. He seems to have a brain and a conscience, and that can be a bad combination for a recruiter. He seems genuinely troubled by the death of a young man he recruited (though I don't think there are too many who would fault Rush directly), and that sort of thing will prey on his mind.
