#6 Danged CO was asleep at the freaking switch.

How in the hell could a company commander, or one of the other senior enlisted in that company said something? To Someone?

Combat, killing and seeing the dead and dying takes a toll. The stress builds and builds....someone should have done something.

Very sad.
