NOTES:
Captain Frank Gennaro is a family man, first and foremost. I'm hoping that we can resolve this experiment before he becomes eligible for injection. If his wife and kids knew what Project Abraham was all about, they would be praying for the same, I can only imagine.


When I have time, I want to work through his compulsions with gambling. Frank blames himself for his family's money problems - maybe that's how he got involved with this whole mess.

Psych Report (2)

Psych Report

SOLDIER: Capt. Frank Gennaro
DOCTOR: Dr. Cassie Aklin


NOTES:
I feel like a monster. I just learned that Frank Capt. Gennaro is now eligible for this week's test. How can I continue working here knowing full well that our research could deprive two kids of their loving father? Or send another widow out into the world to fend for a shattered family?


Then again, why does Gennaro have any more right to live than the other two? They're all human beings, right? I have to maintain my objectivity.


In light of his inclusion in the new voting pool, I had a longer session with Frank today. He's wracked with guilt - over duty, responsibility and, mainly, over money. It seems that the captain has a long history of gambling problems. He mentioned some loan sharks (I think that's what they're called), but he shut down when I pressed him on the matter. I think Frank has a lot of fear pent up inside him, but I don't blame him one bit.


This situation has forced me to reevaluate my role at Project Abraham. How can I "fix" this soldier's issues in such a limited frame of time? I know that's an impossible way to think about it, but I refuse to just sit back and read them their last rites.


I have to give Frank some semblance of psychological comfort. That goes for the rest of the men, as well.

SOLDIER: Capt. Frank Gennaro
DOCTOR: Dr. Cassie Aklin


NOTES:
Nov. 17th, 1950


My meeting with Frank Gennaro was brief and telling. His shoulders stiffened up when I came into the room, so I wasted no time in letting him off the hook; I told him that he wasn't chosen for the injection this week. It was as if he was playing his own mental game of Russian roulette. He heard the all-important "click" and knew that the bullet was in another chamber... this time.


But, the other side of this coin has an ugly face. Captain Gennaro is tensing up, ready to hear the blast of a pistol pointed at his head. I hope it never is.

SOLDIER: Capt. Frank Gennaro

NOTES:
Nov. 21st, 1950


I am most torn about Capt. Gennaro. It's difficult to separate out his fitness as a scientific candidate from the fact that he has a family. I am also concerned about the affect choosing him will have on the other's morale. Several of the men have expressed their concern.


As the days go on, Gennaro seems to become more and more on edge. Not in quite the same way as the other men. He becomes keener, more alert, more alive. It is all, in some way, an exciting roll of the die for him.
