It's a shame that all the self proclaimed experts aren't in Haiti right now, from the General (Ret) who sits, well fed, hydrated and comfortable in an air-conditioned television studio telling doctors on the scene to "man up" to those who pontificate on web forums.
General Honore walked the walk during Katrina, which gives him room to talk the talk now.
Based on his actions then, I have no doubt that he would not have permitted leaving patients unattended without an actual threat to go without reprimand. And I would _not_ want to be the security squad chief who decided to withdraw for the night rather than stay at the site and support the medical personnel.
