Soldier Kills Five of His Own in Iraq

An apparent "stressed out" soldier killed five of his fellow soldiers at a counseling center in Iraq on Monday, just weeks before his third tour of duty was to end. His father has said that he "snapped" due to military counselors at the stress center "broke" him.

He spent nearly 38 months in Iraq.

This is a distinct possibilty of the down side of redactment, or simply soldiers wanting to finish their mission, along with their brothers in arms and not getting the rest and relaxation that they require on a regular basis that long-term tour of duty soldiers need.
