...and electronics staff NCO of the 99th Infantry Battalion. You are replacing SFC Sharp who is on the promotion list to master sergeant and is departing for his next duty assignment in two weeks. SFC Sharp’s welcome was impressive and he has done everything imaginable to ensure you’re getting off to a good start. Your Soldiers appear well trained, and your section sergeant, SGT Day, seems to know just about everything. You know you have big shoes to fill when SFC Sharp leaves because everyone seems to like and respect him. You’ve heard people say that he knows more about infantry operations than most infantry platoon sergeants. SFC Sharp has cleaned out his desk and tells you to make yourself at home. Later this afternoon he is receiving an award for his service to the 99th. His farewell party is this evening at the club. As you are setting up your things in your new desk, you discover some papers wedged between the wall and the side of the desk. You pull them out and discover that they are pages from a communication security book and marked “SECRET.” You attach a cover sheet to them and go into the security vault to talk to SGT Day. SGT Day checks the inventory and destruction certificates and discovers that SFC Sharp certified the destruction of the book these pages came from two weeks ago. Both you and SGT Day search the vault and the outer office for any other pages but you don’t find any. SGT Day turns to you and says, “Sergeant, I don’t know about you, but the way...

...with its own set of problems, as an increasing number veterans face a battle in their own minds. That battle is Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and it has been affecting veterans for decades, as an anxiety disorder brought about by the exposure to a traumatic event that causes a “pathological memory”, which then emerges with symptoms of “generalized feelings of fear and apprehension” (Butcher, 2010, p. 158). The number of veterans diagnosed with PTSD and being treated through the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) has tripled since 2001; emphasizing the vital need for established therapies (Eftekhari, Ruzek, Crowley, Rosen, Greenbaum, & Karlin, 2013). According to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), as of September 1, 2013, 625,953 veterans are being compensated for PTSD. The rise in the number of veterans presenting with PTSD is thought to be in direct correlation to longer deployments, decreased time between deployments and the increasing number of deployments (Cook, Dinnen, O'Donnell, Bernardy, Rosenheck, & Hoff, 2013). In order to be compensated for the disorder, veterans must meet the requirements set forth in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) and the PTSD Checklist-Military (PCL-M) (VA (3), 2013). The PCL-M currently uses DSM-IV criteria and is being updated to incorporate the DSM-5. While information regarding DSM-5 is available, for the remainder of this report all reference to the DSM will be based on criterion...

...Infant Feeding in the Context of HIV FACILITATOR’S MANUAL TOSOUTH SOUTH THE SOUTH TO SOUTH PARTNERSHIP FOR COMPREHENSIVE FAMILY HIV CARE AND TREATMENT PROGRAM (S2S) South Africa has the largest HIV burden of any country in the world, with an estimated 5.7 million people living with the virus. Women and children remain at the centre of the pandemic in terms of transmission, vulnerability and potential for impact. To continue to build on the existing successes of South Africa’s antiretroviral (ARV) program, the capacity for HIV disease management must be enhanced. It is essential that HIV disease management transition from an individual case management to a family-centred and chronic-care approach targeting and prioritising pregnant women and children. Enrolling pregnant women and children into HIV care and treatment early and regularly can prevent new HIV infections and reduce morbidity and mortality, effectively sustaining the quality of life of mothers, their children, and their families. The scale up of effective prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) and paediatric ARV care and treatment programs are crucial in the fight against HIV but are challenged by many factors including perceived complexity of treating pregnant women and children, inadequate paediatric and PMTCT knowledge and clinical skills, lack of psychosocial and adherence support, delays in integrating PMTCT services with antenatal and child health management systems, and gaps in referral...

...Comments/Suggestions: CPT 125 Pre-Requisite: Completion of 1st Year Courses Introduction: Systems Design is a central part of systems development. It comprises the process of turning a set of user requirements into an implementable system and encompasses various activities to achieve this end. Alternative models are challenging the traditional systems development life cycle. Alongside this, two approaches to systems development are emerging: the traditional structured approach; and the object oriented approach. The systems design activity will be studied in the context of these trends. Students should make themselves familiar with at least one traditional approach (e.g. SSADM) and one object oriented approach (e.g. UML). Aims: To understand the role of systems design within various systems development life cycles To develop awareness of the different approaches that may be taken to systems design To understand and apply the tools and techniques that are currently used by systems designers Formatted: Superscript Objectives: Describe different life cycle models and explain the contribution of systems design within them Discuss various systems development approaches and explain their strengths and weaknesses 1 30/09/1123/09/10 Evaluate the tools and techniques that may be used by a system designer in a given context Use appropriate methods to produce a system design for a given scenario Provide suitable systems documentation for a design Discuss the CASE...

...defeat and capture of more than 1,600 prisoners of war, 18 cannons and numerous supply wagons (Evans, 1899). In March of 1864, prior to MG Sturgis’ defeat at Brice’s Crossroads, a bigger war was being fought between LG Ulysses S. Grant and General Robert E Lee which would mold the battle to come. LG Grant had devised a plan to devastate the Confederate Army and presumably win the war to come. By taking the city of Atlanta, LG Grant’s most trusted subordinate, Major General William Tecumseh Sherman, would destroy the confederate forces and lay siege to the city. In doing so he would control a critical logistical supply junction and cripple the Confederate’s ability to sustain valuable resources to aid them in the future. During the first week of May, MG Sherman began implementing his plan by moving south towards Atlanta, defeating enemy forces along all avenues of approach. While successfully accomplishing this course of action, he began to call for reinforcements to assist him in his objective. For him to be able to seize Atlanta and hold the battlespace, MG Sherman would need enough supplies and men to fortify his position and occupy the city effectively. MG Sherman ordered his subordinate, LG Leonidas Polk, to oversee the resupply of his forces and security of routes leading down to Atlanta. These actions would ensure the Union Army would be able to withstand the forces of the Confederate Army and win a decisive victory, giving them the upper-hand to win the war. While...

...Introduction to Counseling PSY331 Instructor Dr. Chauntel Gustis January 11, 2015 * Introduction Over the last 12 years, I have undergone a lot of personal experiences with my children that have required the assistance of a child mental health professional. After much frustration with not always being able to find the appropriate individual due to shortages, I have made it my mission to become educated in my children's conditions and continue so that in the future I can assist parents and children who find themselves in the same predicament that I did for so long and I can best do that by becoming a child psychologist. Child psychologists work with children in areas that expand from general research to dealing with a variety of complex therapeutic treatments that are aimed at helping with their social and mental development. Often, we can find these experts working for schools, courts or even within private practices. One thing for sure is that they must be qualified, dedicated and equipped to handle the issues of the child and at times the family unit especially if they are as complex as the case of Briana. The Client - Briana Briana is currently 15 years old and is a lovely young lady with a couple of diagnoses. Her first diagnosis is Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), which can only be diagnosed "after a person experiences symptoms for at least one month following a traumatic event, yet she was diagnosed at age 4. The disorder is characterized...
