No he's a lot "crazy". The short answer is simple.
RUN!
The long answer could easily fill a book. He has demonstrated a serious lack of judgment in addition to leaving you "out of the loop" in a major life changing (possibly life ending) decision. Cut your losses and leave. Take it from someone who has been there. War is not a glorious adventure or any other Victorian duty bound BS. He will not come back. His body may return, but even if he is alive he, his soul or core, will be irrevocably altered and not for the better. If he tends to be a loose cannon now, combat will only make it much more severe.
