Breaking News: Since I posted the above information today, a soldier at Fort Sill whoÂ’d been in PTRP for some months cracked up. HeÂ’d been returned to training, where he was informed that OSUT (one station unit training) no longer existed for his MOS. He was shuffled back to PTRP, who refused to take him (of course) because they no longer considered him injured. [He had a broken finger, and it healed in such a way that he couldnÂ’t close his fistÂ…his finger sticks straight out.] Four days after being returned to training, he was sent to the FTU [is the FTU becoming a warehouse as well?]. Seven days later, this young man (who had appeared to be stable according to his former peers) silently appeared at noon formation. He was bleeding from self-inflicted cuts and covered with feces heÂ’d smeared upon himself. He was wearing only his combat boots and his socks. He just couldnÂ’t take it any longer. He was hauled away in an ambulance with a police escort. God bless him.
