Her comments weren't an attack on ANYONE, including the military. She was simply saying that it wouldn't be tolerated for someone to do that on a military site, as an example. She made no negative or derogatory remarks about the military.

And it should NOT be obvious that you are an active duty army nurse deployed OCONUS (I have no idea what that even is) in Iraq for 15 months.

How would that be obvious to ANYONE, let alone a new poster, unless you come out and say it in every thread right off the bat. You are assuming and expecting way too much, and jumping to conclusions.

Re: Lack of male patient privacy

I see nothing about you being in Iraq. Is it the AD Army Nurse part?

I just realized AD could mean Active Duty. Surely you don't expect people to see the letters AD and equate that to you serving Active Duty in Iraq. That's a lot of putting together of information, that and the rest...
