Is this because their Soldiers or because their French? This dosen't sound all that common in other parts of the country.

Its because the military wants to cast a wide net over the issue. They want to make sure that the friends of the 38 year old stay back a little bit to give him some support. I dont think the fact they are French has any bearing on this.

I wouldn't worry about those soldiers, anybody who calls the police claiming they wanted to kill themselves will not actually do it.

I dont know about that, Im sure that once or twice the police have arrived to find the caller dead. I cant remember any such cases involving soldiers though.

It is quite obvious that you have no experience in such matters, and that is a good thing! Your post brings to mind the old adage 'Better to remain silent and thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt!

Nothing new here. Didn't a number of soldiers from Quebec test positive before their last tour in Kandahar?

don't harp on French CANADIAN SOLDIERS! make fun of the French, leave the Soldiers who serve us out of it.
