I am dealing with this in a young soldier. He wants to deploy so bad. He even gets upset that other soldiers get to deploy. While he has to stay behind. I tell him every time, that being in life threatening situation everyday of your life. Isn't all that it is cracked up to be. But he is young and inexperienced. Young, dumb and full............!!!Implicit learning/memory vs Explicit learning/memory.
Fascinating stuff.
The story about the Army Ranger who pushed away his rescuer in the rapids with a laugh, then drowned. The way the mind works is really beyond description. People will actually yearn to be in life threatening situations to such an extent that they fail to realize the real possibility of not making it back. Or the brain starting to shut down becuause it does not know where it is.
I don't think the writing style is all that, but the content is great. Can't put it down.
