I respectfully disagree.

Individual counseling, family counseling, emergency financial assistance, care for dependents...... As a soldier who was single during his service, I had no need for any of that. However, whatever gets the soldier and his family through his military life with the associated danger and pressures should be furnished.

I never missed a catholic mass in the jungle, and I'm a staunch baptist.
