I don't know the facts of this woman's service. I don't know if she's black, white, or purple. I have a problem with people being used indiscriminantly and, after extensive training, thrown into high mortality jobs. I wish there weren't high mortality jobs, first and foremost.
I don't think I can really add anything substantive to Chris's statements, so I'll stop now.
