Reigntax Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 “ he planned to kill 10 people” Right profession but for the wrong country. At least he got full marks in the Thai military “surrendering” training Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought that being able to cope with stress is a vital part of being in the armed forces. Goes with the job if you're called into action. Of course, the Thai army only has to deal with fighting off unarmed fellow citizens with water cannon, so perhaps there's no stress involved in the job in Thailand.

Dont you think there is this newage defence force thing these days most places? "cant yell" or otherwise talk to soldiers as it might upset them... take care of their "feelings" and their mental health..... nevermind having to go to war... they might get stressed?
