If a General is a higher ranking officer than a Major, then why is a major illness worse than a general illness?

diarrhea is worse, you can die from crapping yourself out from dehydration.\n\nYou may burst from being full of poop, but it is really rare.

Only idiots use that term.\n\nWhen you call somebody a 'REMF" all you are doing is displaying your ignorance of how important every person is.\n\nAnd ignoring the fact that many 'REMF' jobs had higher casualty rates than infantry.  (Such as Military Police during the Vietnam war - a more dangerous job than being infantry.)\n\nBasically - when you see somebody using the term 'REMF' - you are dealing with an amateur.

it is basically an infection caused by a lack of certain "good bacterias" found in the intestine that help keep the c-diff under control.thus, in turn, causes a buildup of two toxins that can cause many issues, loose blood stools, ulcerations in the lining of the intestine, vomitting.....if left untreated it can cause a rare death. (seen in those who's immune systems are affected by something else, or those who are elderly).\n\nit can happen after antibiotic use, and it is widely seen in those who believe in colonics, enimas and flushing.\n\ngood luck.

Not sure but is it possible that there could be medical complications arising at some point later in time due to excessive marching or anything?  Sounds really ignorant on my part but can your bones break easily or anything?  Medical is the only thing I can think of....Military anywhere is not big on spending money for something that was done/happened prior to enlistment if something were to happen medically.

You've been listening to too much George Carlin.\n\nActually the reason is that they do it out of force of habit. They are normal medical people, and they are just administering an injection. They do everything normally out of habit. They are trained this way so that they can perform under high-stress situations.

It really depends.  Some people find that it gets better with age, while others seem to feel it gets worse.  I believe other factors, such as stress, contribute to the condition.  Good luck!

It depends on how severe.  I know someone who applied to go to officer's candidate school, which may have different requirements than enlisting.  During the physical, they induced him with histamines and induced an asthma attack.  He was rejected when he had an attack.  I would ask a recruiter.  They will probably have you go through the physical and see how you fare and then make an individual determination.

I have been diagnosed with Bipolar I for over 20 years.  I prefer not to use the word "worst," but the idea that it is more "severe" than Bipolar II is correct.\n\nThe difference between the two has to do with diagnostic criteria.  In simple terms, the manic phase of Bipolar I is more intense than the manic phase of Bipolar II.

Antibiotics are making things worse because they have been overused and used to combat viruses, which doesn't work.  The oversued antibiotics kill off the weaker bacteria, leaving room and food for the stronger, more dangerous bacteria that are more likely to cause grave illnesses or kill people.\n\nThe most important means to control infection is, and always has been, frequent hand washing.

Because a lot of people just don't understand our modern military.  There's now a much greater emphasis on educating yourself in order to move up the ranks.  I know that the Navy is going to start requiring an associates degree related to your rate to make senior chief.  I'm guessing that people also think that enlisted people aren't that bright because we bust our asses for relatively low pay compared to what you can make in the civilian world.

In the United States Army military hierarchy, General of the Armies is traditionally considered a rank superior to a five-star general, also known as "General of the Army" (note the difference between the two ranks). It is sometimes considered a six-star rank. The full title of the military rank is "General of the Armies of the United States", although the rank is commonly referred to simply as "General of the Armies". The only people in history to hold the title General of the Armies were John J. Pershing and George Washington.\n\nJohn Pershing (September 13, 1860 – July 15, 1948), the senior U.S. Army General of World War I, was granted the rank of General of the Armies in 1919 in recognition of his performance as the commander of the American Expeditionary Force. General Pershing was offered the option to create his own insignia for the new position, but continued to wear the four stars of a regular General. At the time of Pershing's appointment to the rank, the position was considered more of a title than a rank, comparable to the Civil War title "General of the Army."\n\nDuring his lifetime, George Washington (February 22, 1732 – December 14, 1799) never held the rank "General of the Armies." During the American Revolution he held the title of "General and Commander in Chief" in the Continental Army. After his death, Washington was listed as a Lieutenant General on the Continental rolls, and he never wore more than three stars on his military uniform.\n\nA year prior to his death, Washington was appointed by President John Adams to the rank of Lieutenant General in the United States Army during the Quasi-War, after he had left office as President of the United States. Washington never exercised active authority under his new rank, however, and Adams made the appointment mainly to frighten the French, with whom war seemed certain.\n\nOn 11 October 1976, by Act of Congress, Washington was posthumously appointed to the rank of General of the Armies. The appointment was backdated to July 4, 1776 and was not considered a promotion to six-star general, but rather a symbolic promotion that made Washington the most-senior United States military officer. By executive order of President Gerald Ford, it was also determined that George Washington would always remain senior and could never be outranked by any other officer of the U.S. military.

you can draw an officer and around him are lots of money and he is wearing a crown which means he is superior... then under him are poor indian people suffering some scenes can be people who have diseases who are poor and can't afford to go to the hospital or some citizens who don't have food and don't have homes they just sleep on streets or kids who don't go to school...

As a general rule viruses are more deadly, more infectious, and harder to cure.  Some bacteria like Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Tuberculosis), Bacillus anthracis (Anthrax), Yersina pestis (Black Plague) can all be more deadly than a common cold (Rhinovirus).  But viruses not bacteria are what occupy the highest level of containment, level four.  Viruses like small pox.

I'm studying to be a speech path, and I'd say you'd have much more luck with audiology in the air force or military in general. speech, while not limited to these areas, are more often for children or people affected by strokes, mental disorders, etc. not the usual military person. However, audiology and speech pathology are often grouped together for a portion of the time and audiology is MUCH more prelevent in the military.. all those guns and loud planes and everything. look into that!

It's easier to deal with a known than prevent a maybe.\n\nThere are so many crises that they will never get caught up.\n\nSometimes the cure is worse than the disease.

they are not the same rank... the Army/AF equiv of Captain in the Navy is Luitenant.  Navy Captain is the equiv to Col
