Administrative Separations

'Many chronic minor offenders, mental defectives, "alcoholics," psychopathic states including sexual deviates, and other personality disorders were referred for psychiatric evaluation but could be discharged from the service only by nonmedical (administrative) proceedings. These cases were usually first sent for psychiatric evaluation and then, if deemed appropriate, were referred to "Section VIII" boards. This section of the general regulations (AR 615-360, 26 Nov. 1942), dealing with premature separation from the service, provided for the release from active duty of a wide variety of behavioral problems under the heading "inaptness or undesirable habits or traits of character," as follows:

(1) Is inapt [included mainly intellectual deficiency], or

(2) Does not possess the required degree of adaptability for military service [included enuresis [bed wetting - often found in children who've been sexually abused] and personality disorders who manifested little or no acting out behavior] * * *

'Each year in the United States, more than 3 million cases of child abuse are reported, with sexual abuse accounting for 8 percent of cases, according to Childhelp, a leading national nonprofit organization dedicated to helping victims of child abuse and neglect. In fact, the American Academy of Pediatrics reports that studies show up to one in four girls and one in eight boys are sexually abused by age 18. Besides secondary bed wetting, other signs of sexual abuse include fearful behavior, abdominal or genital pain, urinary tract infection, or inappropriate sexual behavior.'

The researchers found that 21 percent of the schizophrenia patients experienced childhood bedwetting, compared with 11 percent of their unaffected brothers and sisters, and 7 percent of those in the other comparison group. This suggests that childhood bedwetting indicates abnormal brain development that contributes to the development of schizophrenia, the study authors say.' - http://www.nimh.nih.gov/news/science-news/2008/childhood-bedwetting-occurred-twice-as-often-in-adults-with-schizophrenia.shtml
