12/19 Beyond the Front Lines
Quote From: m782427Dear Fellow Readers: Thank you for reading my message board posting. Two unresolved issue are facing our soldiers, marines, sailors, and airmen/women: (1) attorneys and (2) Psychologists/Psychiatrists. Issue one references the unethical legal attack methodology that is used by our legal profession against many who have served in combat, regardless of the war. The legal attack method is to allege that those who have served are 'trained killers'. The 'trained killer' are bad. Therefore, they are guilty. This guilt is built into the thesis, that the jury will view the 'defendant' as a 'trained killer', i.e., a bad person. Therefore, he/she are guilty. Obviously, this is a reflection on the emotional issues as opposed to a factual issues. We are seeing the falsification of complaints in divorce cases that have alleged that our soldiers, marines, sailors, and airmen/women, because they have served, are therefore violent and have committed violent acts. Evidential investigations are providing that this falsification is becoming more prevalent. Issue two references the unethical psychological/psychiatric methodology of the inappropriate classification and diagnosis of PTSD. Again, through evidential investigations, these classification and diagnosis are beginning to invalidate the alleged findings. For example, someone who is not in combat, but in a support position, such as 'supply logistics' away from all forms of combat, located on a base, not in contact with others who are in combat, and have shown absolutely no prior or present characteristics of PTSD are being examined, interviewed, and suggestively concluded that they may have PTSD. Wherefore, a word of warning to the soldiers, marines, sailors, airmen/women; many of the inexperienced and possibly unethical professionals as stipulated are using your service to your nation as their newest weapon against you. This is not to scare you, but to allow you to see past the certification and license on their wall in their office. My son is in the army stationed right now at Ft. Riley, Kansas. He has served two (2), 15 month tours in Iraq. Though thankfully he returned home safe with no physical damage, but does suffer considerabile PTSD. He has a lovely wife and three wonderful children who are also victims of this disorder. I thought it is also now a good time to bring up what the army is trying to do to him now. My son joined the army as his career and now being diagnosed with PTSD the army has labeled him as un-deployable (not able to be sent back into war). They are now in the process of trying to get him out of the army because to them what good is he if he cannot serve a third or fourth tour of duty. This seems to be another problem that is hurting our service men and not many people know about it. My heart goes out to all who suffer with this illness, the nightmares, the crying in your sleep, the fear of crowds, the emptiness and most of what I see the anger and fear in his eyes. Thank you for the "Beyond the Frontlines" and letting the people out there knowing what is going on.
