Seriously?

The Air Force is offering counseling and stress relief to employees who may never be in a war zone but experience the stress of it nonetheless. The program targets analysts who sit in a room at Langley Air Force Base, Va. They provide information critical to battle strategies. They also go over videos of incidents to assess damage. The Air Force began the counseling program after noticing an uptick in sleeping problems, smoking, alcohol and behavioral issues.

So many crybabies today. Between "depression" (aka weakness) and "suicide" (aka cowardliness) we are doomed in the future.

I don't get the problems that people could possibly have with this.

The military has identified members of the service branches that, while not on the battlefield, are crucial parts of operations on the battlefield. They have identified that certain jobs can be stressful, so they are offering counseling services so that these men and women can do their jobs effectively, and keep our military members on the battlefield safe.

Perhaps they started getting sick of being told to launch a Hellfire missile into a house where a "terrorist" just entered. Along with 6 kids and his wife. Only to find out later that the "terrorist" wasn't really the guy they were looking for. Too bad for the kids, but if we don't fire those missiles, we'll soon have an outrageous stockpile of missiles. Sales will drop. Stock prices crash. So, its either innocent kids or stock price. Even some SS guards got sick of watching children get shot in the head.
