re: #547 tradewind

Might have sunk him? Might have?
No wonder the specialty has a higher proportion of suicides and drug/alcohol abuse than any other in medicine.

I thought that was dentists, for some reason.

This is awful:

The memo does have a couple of qualifications that say something positive about Hasan. It says, “He is able to self-correct with supervision.” And Moran writes, “I am not able to say he is not competent to graduate.”

Officials at Walter Reed told NPR that those statements were very carefully worded. What they convey is that when Hasan’s supervisors read him the riot act — when they gave him intensive supervision — he would improve just enough so that they had to tell their commanders: “Hasan is capable of doing better.”

But officials say nobody has the time to supervise a doctor that closely.

They say he saw only a tenth of the patients other doctors would, and that he let a homicidal patient escape? How did any of this happen?
