Mental health tests don?t catch all troubled troops
2011-10-05 10:41:00 Mental health assessments given to all soldiers after deployment may miss many cases of depression and post-traumatic stress disorder, according to a U.S. study. The research, published in the Archives of General Psychiatry, involved about 3,500 soldiers who were in Iraq in 2007 to 2008 for their third deployment in six years. Before they returned to Fort Stewart, Georgia, they completed a standard, computer-based post-deployment health assessment, which includes questions on PTSD and other mental health problems. This is not anonymous, and is meant to spot problems and help connect them with care when they get home
Memorial Day 2011: THIS Is What American Troops Are Made Of...
2011-05-30 15:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston For Memorial Day, I don't usually post much, preferring to dedicate the day to memorializing our troops.

Wikileaks and Indian Troops Atrocities Reports. Sai Baba Fails To ?Clean Up
2010-12-19 00:44:00 This is but one of a number of huge issues erupting in India right at the moment. Every tragic year that passes shows that Sathya Sai Baba has not "cleaned up (his) own backyard", as he long ago promised he would do. India's security and well-being do not rest in the hands of her superstitious and corrupt leadership - many individuals of which gather around Sathya Sai Baba. They are in the hands of those who at every level actively and honestly struggle, with great sacrifice, against the venalities. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WikiLeaks: India 'systematically torturing civilians in Kashmir' US diplomats were given evidence suggesting India was systematically torturing civilians in Kashmir, according to leaked cables.

Afghanistan: Take the Troops, Leave the Spooks
2010-08-04 04:14:00 The United States is approaching its tenth year of the War in Afghanistan. Even before WikiLeaks released its extensive archive of behind-the-scenes documents chronicling a war gone awry, it was difficult to find a voice of optimism about the war, save the official communications of the Obama Administration. The War in Afghanistan began as a response to September 11, 2001. The Taliban regime provided safe haven to Osama Bin-Laden's Al-Qaeda and the worst terrorist attack in U.S. history was planned somewhere between Kabul and the Hindu Kush. In 2001, invading Afghanistan, toppling the Taliban and going after Al-Qaeda served American interests and made strategic sense. For its first couple years, the Afghan conflict was seen as "the good war" in contrast...

Obama Approves 17,000 Troops To Be Sent To Afghanistan
2009-02-18 03:23:00 My question is why?WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama has approved adding about 17,000 U.S. troops for the flagging war in Afghanistan, administration, defense and congressional officials said Tuesday.The Obama administration is expected to announce on Tuesday that it will send one additional Army brigade and an unknown number of Marines to Afghanistan this spring and summer. Officials spoke on condition of anonymity ahead of the official announcement.About 8,000 Marines are expected to go in first, followed by about 9,000 Army troops.The new forces represent the first installment on a larger influx of U.S. forces widely expected this year. Obama's decision would get several thousand troops in place in time for the increase in fighting that usually comes with warmer weather and ahead of national elections in August.The additional forces partly answer a standing request from the U.S. commander in Afghanistan, Gen. David McKiernan, who has sought as many as 30,000 additional U....

New Tire Technology May Provide More Safety For Our Troops
2008-11-29 02:23:00 In everyday driving scenarios, your tires are among the 3 or 4 most important safety features your vehicle has. Looking at them as a safety feature may seem a little bit of a stretch, but when it comes right down to it they are the only contact between yourself and the pavement. If you move out of the everyday and go to a combat zone, tires could mean the difference between life and death. For this reason, a new kind of tire has been developed for the US Military that could help bring more of our men and women home. |
