A soldier's family got into a car accident while driving up to visit him in the army, resulting in the deaths of his mother, two sisters, and a friend. His father is in critical condition.
1. [+6,358, -69] Shouldn't he be discharged?
2. [+6,207, -63] Discharge him.. no one will argue that
3. [+5,675, -33] I don't think he'll be able to complete his service with a sane mind
4. [+515, -4] This deserves a discharge ㅡㅡ He's basically the head of the household now
5. [+514, -9] Please discharge him.. and the country should be responsible for his mental health treatments.. because I'd go insane if this happened to me.
6. [+485, -2] He lost his entire world in one moment. And who will look after his father? Unless the army wants the son to die too, please just discharge him.
7. [+445, -3] A discharge is the only solution... any normal person wouldn't be able to get through this.
8. [+388, -4] This wasn't just a car accident, the majority of his family was killed... shouldn't that be a discharge?
9. [+306, -3] No one would say a thing if he refused to complete his service. Please just discharge this young man..
10. [+262, -6] I think he's going to need someone to watch him and lead him.. something will happen if he's left alone.
11. [+172, -1] I can't imagine the guilt of having your family suffer an accident like this on their way to see you. He'll have to go see the parents of his girlfriend... go home alone to gather their things.. set up funerals for his family, declare their deaths, watch over his father... Ah, I couldn't imagine a more difficult period than this. This isn't a situation that can be solved with a short break... even a discharge wouldn't be enough for him.
12. [+137, -2] Well duh he should be given a break but a discharge should be seriously considered... How can he live on.. ㅠㅠㅠ and his father needs someone too
13. [+114, -1] 11 days... that's too short... even a month wouldn't be enough ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ he must be in such a mental breakdown....
