Contents

  • Service Number: 849324LF
  • Place of Birth: Sioux Falls, South Dakota
  • Date of Birth: 11/30/22
  • Inducted at: Sioux Falls, South Dakota on 04.13.45
  • Rank: Sergeant, in the U.S. Army

From Dr. Cassie Alkin Journal in Hale's Dossier:

"...Taciturn, Distrustful of authority. Responses to Rorschach and Templeton Apperception were well within acceptable norms. Some evidence of repression, frequent references to leaving-implicates a preoccupation to death.
While I'm sure that Hale's heart is in the right place, he gives me the impression of being a bit cocky."

SOLDIER: Sgt. Nathan Hale
DOCTOR: Dr. Cassie Aklin


NOTES:
Hale was ten minutes late to initial interview, asked if 'the shrink had gotten here yet' but recovered nicely when 'shrink' was revealed to be me. Taciturn. Distrustful of authority. Responses to Rorschach and Templeton Apperception were well within acceptable norms. Some evidence of repression, frequent references to leaving-implicates a preoccupation with death.


While I'm sure that Nathan's heart is in the right place, he gives me the impression of being a bit cocky. I need to focus on the three men who are actually eligible for this week's injection; their mental health is my primary concern.

Psych Report (2)

Psych Report

SOLDIER: Sgt. Nathan Hale
DOCTOR: Dr. Cassie Aklin


NOTES:
I must admit that the impression Nathan gave me last week was not a favorable one. When I first learned that he hails from my home state, I thought to myself, "The upbringing may be South Dakota, but the attitude is pure New York City."


Well, I may have been hasty in my assessment. This is, after all, a stressful situation (to put it mildly). And Sgt. Hale has been able to put aside his own questions, concerns and judgments in order to realize that there's a bigger issue at hand. He has been a real leader here on the base, helping the other men cope with their anxieties by organizing pickup basketball matches, arm-wrestling tournaments and card games (although, I suspect that Captain Gennaro may have had more to do with the gamblind endeavors than Hale). Even though our day-to-day rigors here in Alaska are predominantly gloom and doom, Nathan has been able to see a light at the end of this seemingly endless tunnel. I h ope it really does exist, so I choose to believe in his vision.


In terms of analysis, I had very little chance to dig into Hale's case history. He harbors some resentment toward his father, but his willingness to discuss it makes me think that his paternal issues are in line with a soldier of his age and station in life.


At the end of our session, it occurred to me that he did more listening than I did.
