			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><samp style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #000000"><br />
 I was talking recently with some V.A. colleagues, who were telling me how the new vets coming back from Iraq and Afghanistan are very different from the Vietnam vets they saw decades ago. </p>
<p>Of course, it&#8217;s a different situation in many ways. With Vietnam, the country was totally divided about the war, and we took our anger out on each other, and on the troops we sent out to fight. They in turn were furious about being told to kill people and then getting castigated for it when they got home. We traumatized them all over again. </p>
<p>This new group of soldiers are generally appreciated and acknowledged for putting themselves at risk &#8212; even by people who aren&#8217;t particularly happy about the wars they&#8217;re fighting. That&#8217;s one lesson learned, anyway: not to take the politics of war out on the troops. </p>
<p>Of course, most of our Vietnam troops were draftees. Nowadays we have an all-volunteer army. They can at least feel it was their decision to be there, and that sense of self-efficacy might add to some emotional resilience. (But then again, a lot of the reservists and National Guardsmen thought they were signing up to get some extra money and help out with a few national emergencies. Little did they know they&#8217;d be sent away from their families and careers for months on end, perhaps on their fourth or fifth rotation, fighting real people on foreign soil. So this is a complicated point and not as straightforward as it looks.)</p>
<p>Also, back in the 60&#8217;s, we didn&#8217;t know a whole lot about PTSD and our troops didn&#8217;t know what was happening to them. Based on what we understood from World War II, we tried to prevent them getting PTSD by limiting their time of service to a year (for Marines, it was 15 months). And, sure enough, they came back with a smaller incidence of posttraumatic stress. But two to three years later, lo and behold, they developed delayed onset PTSD and the percentages were right back to being the same as WWII &#8212; somewhere between 22-35 percent. </p>
<p>Sidebar: In any combat situation, the estimates are that 95 percent of exposed people have symptoms immediately afterward. Gradually these subside over the next 90 days for most people, with or without treatment. But after about six months, there&#8217;s a core number &#8211; between 22 &#8211; 35 percent &#8212; that don&#8217;t get better on their own and need help. It will be interesting to see, now that one in nine soldiers exposed to combat are women, whether these stats stay the same. There is considerable cross-cultural evidence from natural disasters around the globe to suggest that women and children are more vulnerable to PTSD than adult men, given exposure to the same traumatic event. Sorry girlfriends, I don&#8217;t like it any better than you do.) </p>
<p>This new group of active military in Iraq and Afghanistan knows what&#8217;s happening to them, to a much greater extent. There&#8217;s been a push to educate our troops and the general public about posttraumatic stress as well as TBI&#8217;s (traumatic brain injury), thanks to a renewed commitment to the mental health of our troops, found in both the Department of Defense and the V.A. Secretaries Gates and Shinseki have been working hard at destigmatizing mental health problems, in ways never seen before. So that&#8217;s another lesson learned from Vietnam, and no small matter. Still, career soldiers still worry a lot about stigma.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s also, frankly, a different kind of drug abuse going on downrange nowadays. Our current troops are being given legal drugs by docs who are placed in the combat theatre with them. The drugs keep them de-stressed enough to keep functioning. They come back home accustomed to anti-anxiety pills, and to a lesser extent, to anti-depressants and pain pills. So many are dependent on them and want to continue with them after their service. This is different from the Vietnam vets who abused multiple illegal drugs and got in trouble with the law for it.</p>
<p>And finally, with many of the Vietnam vets, by the time they came into the V.A. seeking treatment, they were in their 30&#8217;s and more amenable to counseling than these younger soldiers in their 20&#8217;s. They&#8217;d started thinking about their lives in a more reflective way, especially when they started having combat stress-related problems with their relationships and their jobs. </p>
<p>For the younger troops coming back from Iraq and Afghanistan, there&#8217;s impatience with the talking cure. They want to get on with their lives and don&#8217;t want to talk, and reflect and ponder. They&#8217;re saying, &#8220;Don&#8217;t make me a career patient. I need to get to work. I need to help take care of my kids. I cannot come in during your office hours of eight to four for a 12-week course of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Give me a pill or a relaxation audio to calm me down, and let me get back to my life.&#8221;</p>
<p>Keep in mind that two separate surveys &#8212; one at the Durham V.A. and one at the Phoenix V.A. &#8212; established that these new vets prefer getting their help via audio self-help by 72-75 percent &#8212; through their own iPods or MP3 players. (That&#8217;s another difference: this is a population that&#8217;s comfortable with downloads.) Medication scores next highest at around 55 percent. Last on the list? Yep, you guessed it: sitting with one of us therapists. </p>
<p>So now that we&#8217;re learning about the new barriers to receiving help &#8212; some quite positive, by the way (Indeed, what&#8217;s wrong with not wanting to be a career patient, anyway?), I expect the V.A. will get more flexible in how it offers services. And there will hopefully be much more widespread use of self-administered guided imagery downloads &#8212; shown at multiple research sites to reduce symptoms quickly and pretty dramatically while being a pleasant and self-reinforcing experience for the listener. Not to mention inexpensive and useable even in remote s. </p>
<p>We are getting so much more interest and openness to guided imagery than even a year ago, from both the DoD and the VA. These are great trends, very hopeful. I do believe we&#8217;re gonna seriously help a lot of vets.</p>

<p>*Marines want to go back to traditional amphibs*</p>
<p>More than two years before the amphibious assault ship America enters the fleet, Marine officials have already drawn up early plans for a version of the ship that includes a major component America is missing &#8212; a well deck.</p>
<p>The &#8220;LHA 8 concept,&#8221; as it was called in a presentation Monday by Marine Corps Combat Development Command, would combine new aviation features the Marines want in the America class with a traditional big-deck capacity for landing craft and green gear.</p>
<p>Although the Navy&#8217;s most recent shipbuilding program includes no plans for such a ship, the notional drawings for a hybrid LHA 8 &#8212; America is LHA 6 &#8212; show that elements within the Corps are eager to get back to traditional amphibs as soon as possible. Navy Secretary Ray Mabus has said it would be prohibitively expensive to alter the designs for America or the follow-on LHA 7, so they&#8217;ll be built as planned.</p>
<p>America and the unnamed LHA 7 were designed without well decks to create a &#8220;Marine Corps aircraft carrier&#8221; built around the F-35B Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter variant and big rotary-wing aircraft such as the MV-22 Osprey and the future CH-53K Super Stallion.</p>
<p>The future of the ships formerly known as LHA(R) was never stable; advocates pushed for them to be warships, Military Sealift Command auxiliaries or a combination of both. As it happened, Navy officials decided the first two Americas would have gray hulls, but planners inside the Marine Corps came to quietly regret that the next big-deck amphibs won&#8217;t be able to send gear and troops ashore in traditional landing craft.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;</p>

<p>Does including a landingcraft deck means less aviation?</samp></p>

<p><strong>Feb. 5</strong>: This post has been <a href="http://www.propublica.org/feature/administration-signals-it-wont-push-legal-limits-of-terrorism-detention-204#almarri_correx" target="_blank">corrected</a>.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.propublica.org/images/articles/gt_holder_300x200_100204.jpg" width="300" alt="U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder sent a letter to senators this week defending the decision to treat Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, who allegedly tried to blow up a jet carrying nearly 300 people on Dec. 25, 2009, as a criminal suspect rather than as a wartime captive. (Alex Wong/Getty Images) " title="Administration Signals It Won?t Push Legal Limits of Terrorism Detention" />The <a href="http://s3.amazonaws.com/propublica/assets/detention/ag_holder_letter_100203.pdf" target="_blank">five-page letter</a> (PDF) that U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder issued this week defending the decision to treat the Christmas Day bomber suspect as a criminal suspect, rather than as a wartime captive, offered new insight into the Obama administration&#8217;s view of the limits of preventive detention.
</p>
<p>
The letter suggests that the administration sees virtually no legal foundation for holding terrorism suspects arrested on U.S. soil in preventive detention and has very little interest in trying to create any.
</p>
<p>
He didn&#8217;t confine his reasoning to the specifics of Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab&#8217;s case, but instead offered an overarching view of the current state of the law.
</p>
<p>&#8220;Some have argued that had Abdulmutallab been declared an enemy combatant, the government could have held him indefinitely without providing him access to an attorney,&#8221; Holder wrote. &#8220;But the government&#8217;s legal authority to do so is far from clear.&#8221;</p>
<p>
Holder suggested that the administration would need to see a &#8220;court-approved system&#8221; for domestic military detentions to conclude that it did have the authority.
</p>
<p>
The letter was sent to a group of senators who included such leading advocates for <a href="http://www.propublica.org/feature/judges-urge-congress-to-act-on-indefinite-terrorism-detentions-122" target="_blank">a legislatively created preventive detention system</a> as Lindsey Graham, R-S.C. The senators were outraged that Abdulmutallab was given access to a lawyer and is being prosecuted in a civilian court, rather than being treated as a military prisoner.
</p>
<p>
Holder acknowledged that a 2008 federal appeals court decision said the president had the authority to put an al-Qaida suspect arrested in the United States into military detention as part of the post-9/11 wartime response. In that case, <a href="http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/m/ali_saleh_kahlah_al_marri/index.html"scp=1-spot&#038;sq=marri&#038;st=cse" target="_blank">Ali Saleh Kahlah al-Marri</a>, a legal U.S. resident but not a citizen, was arrested in December 2001 in Peoria, Ill., and held for nearly six years in isolation as an enemy combatant. After protracted litigation he was permitted to challenge his military detention in federal court. A lawyer represented him in that unsuccessful <a href="http://www.propublica.org/feature/more-at-stake-in-gitmo-court-orders-than-detainees-fates-821" target="_blank">habeas challenge</a>, but wasn&#8217;t present while he was being interrogated in military custody &#8212; the issue critics of the administration have been exercised about in <a href="http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/a/umar_farouk_abdulmutallab/index.html"scp=1-spot&#038;sq=abdulmutallab&#038;st=cse" target="_blank">Abdulmutallab&#8217;s case</a>.
</p>
<p>
The Supreme Court agreed to review al-Marri&#8217;s case last year, but vacated the appeals court decision after the Obama Justice Department sought to transfer him to civilian custody. He was later successfully prosecuted him in the criminal justice system.
</p>
<p>
The Bush administration had touted the al-Marri decision as a vindication of the president&#8217;s detention power, and Abdulmutallab&#8217;s case resembles al-Marri&#8217;s in certain ways. He was arrested on U.S. soil, in Detroit, after allegedly trying to blow up a jet carrying nearly 300 people on Dec. 25, 2009. He is suspected of having trained with al-Qaida, and he is a citizen of Nigeria, not of the United States.
</p>
<p>
Holder in his letter characterized the al-Marri case as having &#8220;raised serious statutory and constitutional questions in the courts concerning the lawfulness of the government&#8217;s actions.&#8221;</p>
<p>
Still, Holder didn&#8217;t explicitly say never to domestic military detentions. Legal scholars speculate that there may be some scenarios &#8212; perhaps involving an emergency capture based solely on foreign intelligence too sensitive to use in court &#8212; that would require a president to go the al-Marri route or set a suspect free.
</p>
<p><a name="almarri_correx" target="_blank"></a><strong>Correction</strong>: The original version of this story incorrectly stated that the al-Marri decision in the Court of Appeals still stands. In fact, the Supreme Court vacated the decision, thus depriving it of value as a legal precedent.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><samp style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #000000">This is not a life many people could handle. Is it? As military spouses, we deal with what&#8217;s left at home when our loved ones deploy. We get the kids to school. We keep the house clean. We take care of what needs to be taken care of. Despite the pride we have being military spouses, it&#8217;s easy to feel neglected. It is even easier to sometimes get spiteful. </p>
<p>You can admit it. You get a little bitter when trip time comes around. I have been doing that lately. I know that my husband has an upcoming trip and it triggers my defense. I tend to pick fights. I push away. Sometimes I think that if I can detach myself from him even the slightest bit, it will be easier when he leaves. Well, it never is. Instead of it feeling easier, I am left with the guilt of not taking advatage of every day that he was home to just laugh, have fun and be us to the extreme&#8230; goofy.</p>
<p>Then again, when he is home, I can get so caught up in the whole day to day operations of our home. We talk about money. We get stressed about money. We talk about our son&#8217;s behavior. We get stressed about our son&#8217;s behavior. We talk about his schedule. I get stressed about his schedule (smile). My point is, even when I promise to just be in the moment and never let routine get in the way of making sure my husband knows how much I love him, sometimes I do.</p>
<p>Then we get a reminder. After dealing with taxes and getting stressed out over taxes and getting a little moody, my husband says to me, &#8220;You know what. I am not going to let it get to me. Because right now, a wife and two kids are dealing with the fact that their husband and dad won&#8217;t be coming home.&#8221; </p>
<p>My husband lost a friend this week. Our community lost a hero and a family lost their rock. Never let a day pass without being goofy, laughing and loving the most important person in your life. As a friend of mine, she also lost her husband, once told me about time, &#8220;Bianca, THIS, this is all you&#8217;ve got.&#8221;</samp></p>
