Abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs is a nettlesome problem, as its incidence has risen since the beginning of the century. Long-term regular alcohol abuse sooner or later leads to alcohol dependence, mental shock, nervous system and internal organs diseases. Despite the commonly held belief, active-duty personnel in the military are not quite as tough as to be completely immune to the substance abuse problems that blight civilian populations. However, the exact number of the alcohol abusers is very difficult to determine because people tend not to share this information. Thus, the numbers among civilians are very rough as ...

The Wilkinson family and Flanigan family interviewed in “Coping with Fear and Uncertainty” dealt with the fear and uncertainty of military deployments differently. The Wilkinson’s prepared for the realities of deployments by talking about the risks they faced. For example, they accepted that the husband would be deployed and the deployment would put him in danger. They did not focus on the danger. Instead, they planned for their ‘worst case scenario’: What if Mr. Wilkinson’s deployment was extended? That the Wilkinson’s openly discussed the possible risks and planned ahead for possible outcomes shows that they ...

Aircraft Cabin Safety

Accidents are complex systems that happen when multiple failures and factors accumulate and finally blow out of proportion.

Most of the factors that cause these accidents are always present way before they are triggered and an accident occurs. Additionally, most of them are actually triggered by the organization of the system itself due to its design, the ...
