I would love the chance to do some Bush Bashin’ (not that the chances are plenty), as a vet I dont see this as really dont see as Bush's fault or even Rummy. This falls directly on the hands of commanding officers of these young men. I sure there is not a policy or memoranda saying to ignore doctors recommendations. My guess is the officers in charge either dont buy that the soldier is suicidal, and just trying to get out of combat. The other reason is that they are stretched so thin that cant afford to loose any personnel for any reasons.
At least when I was in the military took suicide pretty serious. We had a lot of training on the matter. We even had extra training when a member of my squadron took his own life and when the man incharge of the Navy killed himself.
