So hold on, did you get caught? Actually, what I did is I went back home, I drank myself silly, and my friend found me on the floor. My ranger buddy who I joined with, he was home too on leave, he found me on the floor. I was just drunk and took a bunch of Tylenol. So you tried to kill yourself.

We're just action first, consequences later. But the military found out.
