[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish my grandfather and his platoon mates in WWII - you know, the men who defeated the Nazis - were around to hear this conversation. Do you think anyone on those beaches at Normandy was pulling aside their commanding officer to request accommodations? Did it matter if someone had "slow processing speed" or was "neurodivergent"? Not a frigging chance. The fate of Western civilization was hanging in the balance, every man was expected to pull his weight, and the standards applied equally to everyone. And yes, speed of decision making and execution was paramount and often meant the difference between life and death. I'm not sure when or where we veered off course over the last 80 years.[/quote] If that's your concern, the Army doesn't take people who have diagnosed ADHD and take medicine for it. That doesn't mean a kid with ADHD can't succeed in college and become a medical researcher or an engineer.[/quote]
