And people wonder why no one wants to join the military!!!

This was on Fark. I'm outraged at the U.S. Government because of crap like this. If this were any other job wouldn't we give them disability pay or workman's comp. This is just ridiculous!!!!

    Oh wait, that's an idiotic position to take. What with the explosion and all.

    Here is the thing which confuses me:

    "I'd do it all over again cause I'm proud of the discipline I learned - proud I could so (sic) something for my country," he said.

    The hell?

    I admittedly know very little about this, but I was under the impression that wounded soldiers could receive some sort of monetary compensation.
