Thanks for the link, @rakimball, I’ll dig up the data off MilSuite and will post here.

In the meantime FWIW, I agree with @cplenge that distinguishing between 1 of at least 3 distinct problems that could be all happening at once is very important … and challenging. Initial help, I’d say make sure to communicate the specific issue to…[Read more]

So a friend of mine is at ILE… And looking at some of her work, apparently it’s like this:

@george-l-gurrola

I try to teach the biggies; SHARP, suicide prevention, and resilience at a minimum. Having served 22 years, I have a perspective not many CPT’s have.

ae_rollinson replied to the topic Bring Back the Drink and Think? in the forum Junior Officer 6 years, 8 months ago
