From your last post it seems as though you are saying that high stress jobs are a choice and if you are prone to getting PTSD, then you should find a different career. The problem is, you don't find that out until it's too late. Until much time and money has been invested. Having the label of weak or unfit for service is wrong and frankly inaccurate. People with with work acquired stress disorders/depression/you name it, are not unable to do their job. They may be the best at it.
The idea that it takes being a robot to perform your job is archaic. It is not normal and should not be a part of any work culture. The military is finally learning this decades too late.
Lack of support and unrealistic expectations are what destroys people in high stress jobs.
