         <title>What happens to soldiers after the war?</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>There’s a game called Katana Zero that asks the question of “what do soldiers do after the war” and the video is a good summary of the game and is a good summary of the plot. But if you don’t have time to watch the video since it is fairly long I compiled some appropriate time stamps to where you can jump around and see, (I do recommend watching the video all the way through because the story is pretty good)</p><p><br></p><p>But some of the main themes that katana zero tackles is substance use with veterans, the type of jobs that veterans work and how veterans are treated after wars, and also racism during and after the war. There’s a race in the game called cromag and it’s hinted at that the main character is cromag. </p><p><br></p><p>What are your thoughts about the video after watching it (or parts of it)? And how do you think that the portrayals of the main themes are accurate to military society, or how veterans are viewed after service? </p><p><br></p><p>Time stamps</p><p>13:50 - 14:50, PTSD, Trauma, and substance use</p><p>17:30-18:12, substance use, racism, stigma</p><p>22:40-24:30, PTSD, substance use</p><p>28:30- 31:15, Veterans perspective, PTSD, substance use</p><p>44:00-45:24, Racism, PTSD, survivor's guilt, substance use</p><p>48:14-50:14, Racism, PTSD, survivor's guilt, substance use</p><p><br></p>]]></description>

         <title>Chapter 1: Expanding on Dorie Miller&#39;s Story</title>
         <author>mcrote</author>
         <link>https://padlet.com/mcrote/a0i3x7h7u316o1mf/wish/3182513811</link>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>Bristol describes Dorie Miller's service during WWII as an example of the patriotism of black service members in the pre-integration military. His story was included in the 2001 Michael Bay production, Pearl Harbor. However, the movie did not mention the fact that the Navy refused to release his name as the first African American recipient of the Navy Cross for twelve weeks and then only under pressure from media. </p><p>His story along with those of African American service members stationed in the Jim Crow era south are outrageous by today's standards. Only when need went beyond what the majority could supply, did military leaders consider allowing minority service members to perform duties for which they had been trained. How does this dark era of military history affect military members serving today? </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>In Chapter 2, Bristol explores the "near hysterical bigotry" aimed at all things Japanese after the attack on Pearl Harbor. In one of the most shameful acts the US has committed against its own citizens, many Japanese Americans were rounded up and put in internment camps and Japanese American military members were relieved of duty or relegated to lesser tasks due to unfounded, widespread paranoia felt as a result of the attack. </p><p>In 1988, the US formally apologized to those incarcerated in internment camps and offered $20,000 to each surviving victim. <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2013/08/09/210138278/japanese-internment-redress">https://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2013/08/09/210138278/japanese-internment-redress</a></p><p>In 2022, the USPS honored WWII Japanese American veterans with a commemorative stamp.</p><p>Are these apologies enough? Why do you think similar apologies regarding the treatment of black soldiers in WWII have not been made?

         <description><![CDATA[<p>The number of suicides among Active Duty Naval members in Newport News, Virginia has drawn media attention and the attention of lawmakers in Washington D.C.. In each case, it appears the Navy has neglected to provide adequate living conditions and access to mental health treatment leading to mental health crisis. In at least one case, the family has filed suit against not only the Navy but also Huntington Ingalls Industries for their failures, <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.navytimes.com/news/your-navy/2024/07/18/family-of-aircraft-carrier-sailor-who-died-by-suicide-files-lawsuit/">https://www.navytimes.com/news/your-navy/2024/07/18/family-of-aircraft-carrier-sailor-who-died-by-suicide-files-lawsuit/. </a></p><p>After reading the articles, do you believe the suicides could have been prevented? Why or why not? Should the Navy and HII be held responsible? Why? What role did the ship's leadership have in this tragedy? What should be done moving forward  to prevent future instances of suicide due to the same conditions? Use Ainspan's Suicidal Mode Graphic (Figure 14.1, p. 160) to explain your response.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>In Chapter 14, Ainspan reports, "Results of a randomized controlled trial indicate that active duty military personnel with current suicidal ideation and/or a recent suicide attempt are 60% less likely to make a suicide attempt during the 2 years following treatment if they received Brief Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (BCBT) compared to military personnel who received standard mental health care (p. 163)." He goes on to describe BCBT interventions in three phases for military personnel. What components of the BCBT intervention plan described on pages 164-167 do you believe makes it so effective?</p>]]></description>
