Thanks, Quill. A million bones of gold coming from you.
Yeah, the stupidness of stupidity. There's no other way to describe it. It's sad, for his family.

@blockurator,
You know, "other ranks" rarely think about some of the shitty things that officers must have to do. After reading this poem, I got to thinking: Imagine having to be the Company Commander who has to write a letter to this kid's family. How could such a letter be anything other than wholly moronic? "Your son survived snipers and IED's ... but shot himself in the head while fooling around in the barracks." Christ ...
If it was you who had to write that letter, you have my sympathies.
Quill
I did not. Fortunately. But, yes, writing such a letter, even with a combat casualty, would not be easy. For a stupid accident, well, it doesn't take much imagination ....
