Some at Wash's own hands, of course -- he hadn't gone easy on him, had been harsher on him than he was towards the others, but only because Tucker was the one he knew he could count on to really make it through, to actually be more of the soldier that they needed him to be. He did come through the other side, grew so much over such a short period of time, and then there's everything on Chorus, too, what he went through to try and rescue him, the mercs. Wash hasn't had an easy life, but he doesn't envy the Reds and Blues, either, with all the constant bullshit they've had to put up with that seems to have very little to do with them.
This is just another step in the same pattern.
