For small, special operations type forces that's the kind of guy you
want.  While Sousuke would be too extreme for regular army or even the
Marine Corps he'd fit right in with Delta Force, Navy SEALS or British
SAS.  When Sousuke is given a mission he grinds right through to
completion regardless of what happens to him.  This is the sort of
personality special ops forces screen for in their recruiting and
training.
