My experience has been that the Medical Service Corps has seized the moment to create a bigger niche for themselves in the Army.

The great majority of anger I've experienced, post-deployment, has been righteous anger directed toward this or that weaselly MSC officer putting requirement after requirement on our notably non-combat unit, making it difficult to train/have time with my family.

I am still fully convinced that Army Doctors put a ton of people on "medical hold" primarily to create the Walter Reed crisis and therefore increase their budget/officer staffing.

On a related issue, a co-worker, who has just returned from a year-long non-combat deployment, has been required, along with the rest of his section, to attend PTSD counselling sessions. When he asked to be let out of this un-paid requirement, he was automatically diagnosed with PTSD.
