Because I know myself would break under torture, I would never take a mission where capture by the enemy is a likely outcome. Only a person with an iron constitution should take such missions.

Goodness! I didn’t KNOW I could have picked and chosen!

Hmm. I had a bad feeling about the one where I got blown up a bit. Who do I see about filing for an arrears declination of mission? Would I have to give up the PH and disability or would that add to it, seeing I didn’t know I had a choice ( sarc, of course)?

I agree. One of the reasons I chose submarine duty is that you either get back to port or you die quickly.
