I’ve been working with for a few months now and have submitted evidence to the Royal Commission into Veteran’s Suicide here in Australia. In the last 20 years of active deployment by Australia troops overseas more deaths have been by suicide than by enemy action.
The craziest thing to try to come to terms with is that 1/2 of those suicides are by those that didn’t engage in combat operations.
There’s little or few reasons we comprehend why such a scenario exists, except I’m of the belief in any organisation, betrayal of purpose is paramount to personal problems.
It’s a sad and bitter situation.

I don’t get your comment, Dead Man. Is there a story behind this?

Hopefully he said what I said to Kurt Charles, the Dirt of Exams FSO; that I felt like killing myself. Kurt then said that my needle was floating.
As I was leaving he asked me what I had said.
When I told him he said ” Your needle was not floating.
No shit.
That is a manifestation known as an ARC break needle. it looks like an F/N, but with bad PC indicators. Why; It’s because the PC knows that nobody gives a Fuck and there is no point in telling anyone whlo
What the problem was.
Back to the question:
I hope that after he told the examiner that he wanted to kill himself, that he did exactly that.
I have been waiting for 44 years to die after I told Kurt that.
DM does not have to wait for anything or any CSSOBOHB.

It is so spot on, that I hauled 2 PC folders to the Sandcastle on my motorcycle to the C/S there to determine if they were ready for Solo N/OTs.
