ANY military shrink knows the regulations intimately about how to get medically discharged, and honorably. He probably signed the discharge paperwork for many of his own psych patients.
NO, he did NOT “want out”. BS. I refuse to accept this excuse which is comming from his “shocked and saddened” family (who have been sitting in mosques listening to imams preach hatred of the US and Israel for his and their entire lives)
What he did is not rational unless he is a committed Jihadist who wanted to take out some of the enemy per his remarks on the internet about suicide bombers. Either way, he wanted out and got his wish.
