"a combat damaged veteran"
Not really, no.
From Wiki: "...the Tenth Doctor laments that demise of his current incarnation, with its own personality and attributes, makes for something much akin to an actual death."
I'd say that makes each incarnation of the Doc akin to being 'brothers' to the others, or witnesses to the others.
Another example of this is when First met Second and Third, referring to them as clown and dandy.
Sure the Eccleston Doc may feel terrible about what his predecessor did in the Time War (even as he sees the necessity of it), but it wasn't 'him' who did the deed(s).
As for my assessing the majority of Docs as pussies or near pussies: *shrug* We could go 'round and 'round on that one.
I'm far more interested in an assessment of my theory about Hurt's Doc.
Any one?
