Hannelore??
Border Reiver:
Worst person I ever knew around blood was a medic that used to be in my unit.
She used to throw up when she saw people bleeding badly. Made looking after the troops somewhat difficult when they got injured.
XFDDave:
Oh man, talk about taking on the wrong job.
Man-Eating Eggplant:
That's not too bad. What if there was a guy that took a job getting stung by bees and he's allergic to bees?

Being given the wrong job, more like. In the military, it's less "What job would you like?" and more "Here's a job. Like it." Although they do try to make sure the job is suited to your aptitudes and tastes.
Border Reiver:
Actually there is an aptitude test before you enroll - to help decide if you have the smarts/common sense to do the job you've signed up for. In the Cdn military, you choose three "trades" you're interested in (ranked from most desired to least) and if you fit the aptitude for them, then they will try to accomodate you by putting you where you want to go. Being a volunteer military means we would rather have people doing jobs they want to do, increases performance.
Back on topic Hanners isn't having an unusual reaction to blood or injury, even for someone without OCD. I'm still not sure why people where thinking that her reaction was over the top.
