The way that this
affected my self-image was
by seeing me as a failure.
I had the privilege of going
from an E-1 to an E-8
with many
responsibilities at the end.
Being competent and capable,
but I didn't feel that way.
I felt like a fraud
because of the guilt that I felt
for those cases,
those situations that were
that did not turn out the
way we wanted them to.
We put a lot
of effort into getting
on scene,
doing the rescue.
But when that
rescue becomes a recovery,
it hits you and it's compounded
as it happens again and again.
