Ask A Vet

Good Morning.
Today is our 2,127th day in Iraq.
We'll start this morning as we always do, with the latest casualty figures from the warron terra, courtesy of Antiwar.com:
American Deaths
Since war began (3/19/03): 4226
Since "Mission Accomplished" (5/1/03): 4087
Since Capture of Saddam (12/13/03): 3765
Since Handover (6/29/04): 3368
Since Election (1/31/05): 2788
Other Coalition Troops - Iraq: 317
US Military Deaths - Afghanistan: 637
Other Military Deaths - Afghanistan: 417
Contractor Deaths - Iraq: 445
We find this morning's Cost of War passing through:
$587, 859, 250, 000.00
Turning to our friends at IAVA, once again there is an action call for an investigation into the action of KBR in Iraq. Some Indiana guardsmen are concerned that they may have been exposed to toxic chemicals while protecting a KBR worksite in Iraq. Naturally the contractor is remaining mum.
Speaking of soldiers in Iraq, we're all aware of the mounting toll of the wounded. (Who have never been accurately counted, btw.) As in most wars, those that were injured in the line of duty are eligible for a little award created by George Washington, the Purple Heart. Except, of course, for those soldiers with PTSD.
Finally this morning....suppose the unthinkable happened and one of your loved ones gave the last full measure of their devotion to these United States. You would expect the defense department to at least get your name right, wouldn't you? Unfortunately, our inept government can't even do that. Despite trying to do the right thing here by sending out letters to inform families of the deceased of the various support programs and family networks available to them....they all went out with the greeting "Dear John Doe..."
There's just 7 more days left.
Speaking of which, I'll be away next Tuesday and won't be able to write this blog. So, I'm soliciting a backup today. It doesn't necessarily need to be "Ask a Vet", but if you're moved to write a blog, now is your chance! (And if you don't have the power already, we can give it to you with a simple click of the mouse.)

Turning to our friends at IAVA, once again there is an action call for an investigation into the action of KBR in Iraq. Some Indiana guardsmen are concerned that they may have been exposed to toxic chemicals while protecting a KBR worksite in Iraq. Naturally the contractor is remaining mum.
NEW YORK - Today, Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA), the nation's first and largest nonpartisan group for Iraq and Afghanistan veterans, called for the military contracting firm KBR to come clean about any knowledge of toxins present at a power plant in Iraq and demanded that Congress take action on the issue of toxic exposure in Iraq and Afghanistan.
"This situation with KBR may just be the tip of the iceberg. From burn pits to power plants, we are hearing more and more about troops who have been exposed to toxins while serving our country overseas," said IAVA Executive Director Paul Rieckhoff. "It is critical that Congress follows Senator Bayh's lead to implement a medical registry so that we can find out the true extent of toxic exposure in Iraq and Afghanistan. We owe these servicemembers and their families real answers."
Last month, sixteen Indiana Guardsmen assigned to protect KBR employees at a power plant in Iraq announced they were suing the defense contractor, accusing the company of knowingly exposing them to a cancer-causing chemical. The Guardsmen claim that upon returning home from Iraq they developed new health problems, including rashes, tumors, and even cancer. Already, one Indiana Guardsman has died from lung cancer and CBS News has reported that 60 percent of the soldiers "exhibit symptoms of exposure." Their lawsuit, filed in a US District Court, claims that KBR managers knew the site was contaminated but "downplayed and disregarded" the risk. Thus far, KBR has denied any negligence or wrongdoing.
Senator Evan Bayh (Indiana) has announced that he will reintroduce legislation to create a medical registry for military personnel exposed to toxins. The registry would track servicemembers exposed to industrial toxins during wartime service, guaranteeing them access to priority care at VA hospitals.
"Any service member exposed to toxic chemicals while deployed should receive the best health care our country has to offer," Senator Bayh said. "This registry, modeled after our government's response to Agent Orange during the Vietnam conflict, will cut through bureaucratic red tape so exposed troops can get the medical monitoring and treatment they deserve in the event health conditions develop later in life."
Speaking of soldiers in Iraq, we're all aware of the mounting toll of the wounded. (Who have never been accurately counted, btw.) As in most wars, those that were injured in the line of duty are eligible for a little award created by George Washington, the Purple Heart. Except, of course, for those soldiers with PTSD.
WASHINGTON—The Pentagon on Thursday sought to assure troops that it takes post-traumatic stress seriously despite the recent decision not to award the Purple Heart to those with the disorder.
An advisory committee concluded that troops coming home from the wars with combat stress cases collectively known as post-traumatic stress disorder will not qualify for the prestigious medal awarded to service members wounded in action.
"I don't think anybody should assume that that decision is in any way reflective on how seriously we take the problem of PTSD," Defense Department press secretary Geoff Morrell said. He noted that the military is budgeting money for research, development, treatment and preventive measures.
"Just because an awards committee believes this particular injury does not qualify for this award does not in any way reflect that we don't take this problem seriously and aren't committed to doing everything we possibly can toward preventing it, toward treating it, toward taking care of those who are suffering with it," he told a Pentagon press conference.
Troops with post-traumatic stress can have flashbacks of their time at war, nightmares, sleeplessness and other debilitating symptoms.
Nearly 20 percent of military service members who have returned from Iraq and Afghanistan -- 300,000 in all -- are estimated to have symptoms of PTSD or major depression, according to a study last year by the RAND Corp. research organization.
Though full-blown symptoms may not surface immediately, doctors say symptoms can be lessened and controlled with early treatment and that most people can return to their duties.
The Pentagon decided in November that troops with the disorder cannot be awarded the Purple Heart, but the decision was not known until it appeared Monday on the Web site of Stars and Stripes newspaper.
"The Purple Heart recognizes those individuals wounded to a degree that requires treatment by a medical officer, in action with the enemy or as the result of enemy action where the intended effect of a specific enemy action is to kill or injure the service member," Defense Department Eileen Lainez said of the decision. "PTSD is an anxiety disorder caused by witnessing or experiencing a traumatic event." It is not "a wound intentionally caused by the enemy from an outside force or agent," but is a secondary effect caused by witnessing or experiencing a traumatic event.
Finally this morning....suppose the unthinkable happened and one of your loved ones gave the last full measure of their devotion to these United States. You would expect the defense department to at least get your name right, wouldn't you? Unfortunately, our inept government can't even do that. Despite trying to do the right thing here by sending out letters to inform families of the deceased of the various support programs and family networks available to them....they all went out with the greeting "Dear John Doe..."
The relatives of soldiers who died in Iraq and Afghanistan were shocked to receive form letters from the U.S. Army that were addressed "Dear John Doe," The Washington Post reports.
The paper says 7,000 family members received the letters, which the Army's Casualty and Mortuary Affairs Operation Center sent last month with information about groups that support the families of those who die in combat. Officials blamed the "glitch" on a printing error by a government contractor.
Army Times says Gen. George Casey, the service's chief of staff, will send each family a personal note.
"There are no words to adequately apologize for this mistake or for the hurt it may have caused," Brig. Gen. Reuben D. Jones, the Army adjutant general, says in a statement. "It is important the original intent of the letter is not lost. The organizations mentioned are dedicated to honoring loved ones and recognizing their sacrifice and commitment."
There's just 7 more days left.
Speaking of which, I'll be away next Tuesday and won't be able to write this blog. So, I'm soliciting a backup today. It doesn't necessarily need to be "Ask a Vet", but if you're moved to write a blog, now is your chance!

Gosh Tri,
I had heard about the Military Brass not wanting to recognize PTSD as a legitimate war wound - if it isn't, then what is it? As a person who suffers from clinical depression, I can tell you it can be every bit as debilitating as a "physical wound."
And what isn't physical about mental conditions anyway - I just don't get it.
Greta post, BTB....
Cheers,
mfaye
PS. I am taking Inauguration Day off and could come up with a blog post for next Tuesday - let me know if it is okay with you and the powers that be at 4Fs...

Let's not get complacent. Bright sun is good, but 39º is still cold to stand outside in for hours. Be nice to your friendly, neighborhood EMT and we'll take care of you. I suppose it's a good thing I'm a Red-Cross trained First Responder, and I'll most likely be on the mall with a small kit and a couple of survival blankets...Just in case.
"Be Prepared". You might have heard that once or twice.

One of the few uber winter things I brought down here with me when I moved. Those boots were made for walking! I have taken them in the mountains and in the city.
Even NYC. People laughed at first, and then were envious after the NYC sludge set in... :D

So why are we going to DC again?
Depending on the theater, big comfy seats, surround sound, popcorn and snacks, vs. Standing out in the cold, no place to pee, and bring a sorry granola bar if you get hungry?
'course there's that whole "I WAS THERE!" aspect about Washington, though.

That's right....two members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee are heading for the Oval Office. I usually elect my presidents based on foreign policy, and this is an embarrassment of riches all of a sudden, innit?
What a change awaits us and the world in 7 days, 1 hour, 27 minutes and 10 seconds!

This is an historic moment for this committee. For the first time in American history, one of our members is about to be sworn in as president, another as vice president.
That's right....two members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee are heading for the Oval Office. I usually elect my presidents based on foreign policy, and this is an embarrassment of riches all of a sudden, innit?
What a change awaits us and the world in 7 days, 1 hour, 27 minutes and 10 seconds!

I suppose I could take comfort in Joe Biden. I love him, but he has some serious comic potential.

I finally got a chance to watch some of the video from the press conference yesterday and was just absolutely in awe at how deliberately clueless this idiot Bush is about what's gone on during the time he's been in office.
The man's a psychopath. I sincerely hope he gets the professional help he needs.

Does anyone else find it VERY strange that he did a parody of himself yesterday at the presser?
Seriously, that was disturbing. I ask you all, Especially you (being that you are comfortable being onstage, etc) can you do a parody of yourself?
It seemed so very disconnecteed to me. disturbing.

Hanging in there. I don't know yet if I am working Tuesday night since I am no longer on rotation and unless I request days off I don't know my days off until the schedule comes off. And due to my current financial situation, there won't be travel plans any time soon. At least I will be home during the actual inagural. I just hope the change in administrations will mean a change in my life because right now things just aren't looking good for me.

Well, here in the Valley of the Sun, I am getting the bureaucratic run around on setitng up a class that I need for a teaching degree. So, I will likely have to reregister as I was told about a payment plan, do not have a checking account yet or the full funds for the class by midnight. So, I will take care of things, go back and wonder if this line that science fiction writer Ben Bova wrote is accurate: More people have died of red tape than bullets.

I have to say that most of the renter's in our communty do keep up there homes its the handful that don't. The ones that are overcrowded, the ones that have gutters falling off, the ones that park anywhere and risk the lives of others and the ones that as I was told this past weekend "don't care".
Then when you remind them of the communty rules they threat to take you to court or want to call the police (I told them go right ahead).
It's those I have a problem with.

The chairman of the Association has joked about sending out a "You Suck" message to the complex, something along the lines of "Dear Resident, You completely suck. Stop whining, and while you're at it, we dare you to get off your ass and come to a tenant's meeting and beat us up" just to see if anyone notices.
Let me know how that works out for ya

Vice Presidential Handlers Lure Cheney Into Traveling Crate
WASHINGTON—A team of nine specially trained handlers have successfully lured outgoing vice president Dick Cheney into a reinforced steel traveling crate in order to transport him back to his permanent enclosure in Casper, WY, official sources reported Monday. "He's a smart one. Once he sees the crate, he gets pretty nippy, but we've learned a few tricks over the years," chief VP wrangler Ted Irving breathlessly said while applying pressure to a deep gash on his forearm. "If we break a rabbit's legs and throw it in there, he will eventually go in to finish it off. Doesn't work with dead rabbits, though. Cheney only eats what he kills." Irving said that the latest vice presidential relocation went much more smoothly than September's diplomatic trip to Georgia, which was delayed for several hours after Cheney mauled three secret service agents and escaped inside the White House walls.

To be fair, they say Obama's a dick for choosing to hang around with dicks.
Biden is a career politician. of course he's a dick.

Bingo! There is something inherently dickish about thinking you have the stones be POTUS. You don't win an election by not being a dick. Just sayin...
