Your point is good in that this is a story from a (then) young psychologist who was involved in the process of selecting people for a duty beyond his understanding or comprehension (being in this case infantry officers for combat duty) little wonder he got it wrong.
This officer selection (AOSB) should not be staffed by those officers who are available but by the best who may need to be pulled off operations and leave for the purpose (not joking). Only the best should be tasked with this selection process.
