Editing Doc Daneeka (section)

====Why me?====
Doc Daneeka shows he has a total lack of empathy for anyone else and he can only think about his own unfortunate circumstances, characterised with his constant lament "Why me?" From bemoaning his loss of a lucrative medical business because he had lied on his drafting papers, to his complete lack of interest for those under his care that may result him being punished by is superiors if he did care. Even when Yossarian helps Doc Daneeka by allowing him to get his flight pay without actually doing the required number of flights (because he is scared of flying) he will not help:

<blockquote>"You do a favor for me, I'll do one for you. Get it?"<br>
"Do one for me," Yossarian requested.<br>
"Not a chance," Doc Daneeka responded.</blockquote>

This is in total contrast to what might be expected of doctors following the [[Hippocratic Oath]]. The Doc does redeem himself, when during [[Milo Minderbinder|Milo]]'s bombing of the airbase, the Doc "loses his head" and works continuously in the field helping the wounded. Also he shows compassion to Yossarian after the death of [[Yossarian#Snowden|Snowden]] over [[Avignon]], by covering him in a blanket and cleaning up Snowden's blood from Yossarian's clothes.

===== Dr Stubbs =====
Dr Stubbs is the doctor in [[Dunbar (Catch-22)|Dunbar]]'s squadron.  Dr. Stubbs decides to try to confront the rules of Catch-22 by grounding any soldier who asks.  Catch-22 cannot be beaten though, as the grounding orders are short-lived as they are rescinded by higher authorities and the soldiers are put back on duty. As punishment Dr Stubbs is transferred to the Pacific, which is one of Doc Daneeka's greatest fears.
