Soldier with 33 ASVAB apparently smart enough to be a suicide-watch battle buddy
SOUTH KOREA — Just seconds after bellowing "I need a body here," Army 1st Sgt. Donald Goodson decided that 17-year-old Pvt. Jarvis Lewis was the perfect choice to escort a soldier with mental health struggles back to the United States.
"Make sure he doesn't, y'know, fucking off himself or whatever," Goodson told Lewis. "You understand me, son?"
Lewis tried to respond but accidentally blew a snot bubble out of his nostril and spooked himself, sources said.
"For the love of God, just get into international air space before it happens," Goodson reportedly muttered, before stalking off.
