Wounded in action (WIA) describes combatants who have been wounded while fighting in a combat zone during wartime, but have not been killed. Typically, it implies that they are temporarily or permanently incapable of bearing arms or continuing to fight. According to the Military Women's Memorial, over 950 women have been wounded in action. The (not so) Average Jane team extends positive, healing vibes - both physical and mental - for all those injured in support of our great nation. #femalecombatveteran #combatveteran #combatactionbadge #armycab #billingsmontana #billings #notsoaveragejane #militarypodcast #militarystories #femalemilitary #nsaj #storiesthatmatter #militarywomen #womeninthemilitary #womenmilitarystories #femaleveteran #woundedwarrior #woundedveteran
Standing beneath the colorful umbrellas, I'm reminded that just like these shades, our stories are unique yet united. My new book 'United We Serve, United We Heal' speaks to the tough, often unspoken issues of racial trauma in the military. It's a call to action—for understanding, healing, and togetherness. Let’s open up and fix this together. Grab your copy and leave me a review. 💚📖 https://a.co/d/9LAhFsw #HealTogether #MilitaryStories #UnitedWeServeUnitedWeHeal

🚨 International Intrigue: A US Marine Pilot's Legal Quandary! 🚨 Meet Major Jason Paladini, whose recent arrest in Perth, Australia, on charges of conspiring with a Chinese hacker has sent shockwaves through diplomatic and defense communities. As reported, Paladini, who served bravely, now faces allegations of assisting "Zhang," a Chinese national implicated in hacking American defense contractors. Here's the twist: Paladini, suffering from PTSD post-service, has been living in Australia and seeking asylum, denying any hacking involvement. His attorney, Saul Holt, cites that their interaction was purely for legal advice in Thailand, with no unlawful undertakings. Could this be a misunderstanding, or is there more to unravel? The FBI and Australian Federal Police continue their investigation amidst US-China tensions over cybersecurity. What do you think lies at the heart of Paladini's case? Innocence entangled in geopolitical strains, or a hidden agenda yet to be uncovered? Share your thoughts below! 🌍 #USMarine #CyberSecurity #USChinaTensions #AustraliaNews #DefenseNews #MilitaryStories #LegalDrama #MajorJasonPaladini #HackingScandal #GlobalAffairs #JusticeSystem
Find this one on our website, t16books.com! In her debut book, The Enlisted, The Price of Service No One Tells You, Pearson sheds light on the tough realities she faced as a black, enlisted woman serving in the U.S. Navy, and draws attention to what other young women are sure to encounter. In her book, Pearson recounts her long, often unbearable, days spent in the middle of the ocean on both a destroyer and aircraft carrier during her two deployments. She gives readers a close-up glimpse into the treatment she and other women sailors were trying to “cope with and maneuver in a field that draws us in with alluring promise, but reluctantly welcomed us once we’re officially sworn in.” Pearson’s book is drawn from a journal she kept during her five years of service in the U.S. Navy and from interviews with women and men who crossed her path during her tours in both Virginia, California, and on the open seas. #tactical16 #t16books #warbooks #booksaboutwar #militarybooks #militarystories #veteranbooks #veteranauthors #poetryforvets #veteranpoems #theenlistedbook

Riddles in the Dark. The Never Ending Battle -by John Morrin In his debut book of poems, the Marine Corps veteran draws upon his struggles with PTSD to shed light on the darkness that lies within us all and invisible wounds that many veterans cope with daily. Find it at t16books.com John Morrin author of Riddles in the Dark. T16 Books.The author incorporates psychology, history, and present-day circumstances into his poems to encourage and empower others to start their inward journey towards healing, growth, and happiness. Morrin’s work is especially relevant in light of recent studies by the Department of Defense. According to a October 2022 DoD report, suicide rates for Active Component Service members have gradually increased since 2011, although the 2021 rate is lower than in 2020. “John’s poems are so important with the continuing mental health crisis our veterans face while serving and after leaving the military,” said Chris Schafer, CEO at Tactical 16 Publishing. “The personal and deeply thoughtful book that John has created provides a real catharsis to others experiencing difficulties of their own, and helps readers know they’re not alone.” https://t16books.com/product/riddles-in-the-dark/ #tactical16 #t16books #survivethenightbook #warbooks #booksaboutwar #militarybooks #militarystories #veteranbooks #veteranauthors #poetryforvets #veteranpoems #mentalhealthpoems #poetrycommunity #poetrysociety #poetryislife #riddlesinthedark #riddlesinthedarkbook

Burn Pit Love How sweet - the smell of your charcoaled cotton candy clouds that coat – our noses in carcinogenic corn syrup that comes from a chemical cocktail combination of exploding cans of peaches c-rations and batteries, that slips down our sinuses suffocating slumbering Sailors and Marines – You so graciously slather our skin in your special spice called scorching human shit, leaving soot so saturated it seeps and scars, leaving stories untold.
When we asked why you joined the military, travelling was one of the common answers. So tell us... where has been your favourite posting, or favourite placed you've been with the military. #militarylife #militaryposting #militaryveteran #militarystories
My name is Karl Hinett and at 17 years old I joined the Staffordshire Regiment. I was soon deployed to Basra, Iraq in 2005 having just turned 18 years old. I felt like the military life really suited me, having done well in training with winning best recruit. The lifestyle and the people I worked with held a lot of adventure and enjoyment, even the inherent dangers. I almost finished my first tour of Iraq with only a few weeks left to go, when I was involved in an operation to support and rescue two captive special forces operators being held hostage. As part of my role as an infantryman, I was also trained in the use of the weapon systems of a Warrior Armoured Vehicle. I was in this role during the operation when we were faced with a huge gathering of people that eventually turned into a large scale riot. As a result I was hit with a petrol bomb while in the turret of the Warrior. Due to the tight confinements, the heat intensified and before I could free myself, I had suffered 37% third degree and full thickness burns. These burns in places had gone to the muscle and bone. The worst hit was my hands, but my face, arms, stomach and legs were badly damaged too. I was CASEVAC’d out and placed into an induced coma, where I woke up ten days later at Selly Oak hospital Birmingham. Then began my recovery, over the next five years I had to have sixteen operations to combat against the difficulties of burn injuries nature to severely restrict mobility. Come back to read the rest of Karl’s story and how he became involved in AGS. #veterans #injuredveterans #staffordshireregiment #military #infantryman #burnsurvivior #casevac #denali #militarylife #warriorarmouredvehicle #veteransupport #ags #militarystories #basra #iraq #soldier @karlhinett

After suffering with PTSD for many years, 91-year-old Jordan felt passionate about giving back through this book, Odds N Ends In Rhyme, The Life and Writings of Walter Phillip “Phil” Jordan Jr. His poems range from humorous to dark, touching on struggles and triumphs that are personal and relatable. The Poems were composed during his time while serving and throughout his life. A true expression of his experiences. His extraordinary careers in both the U.S. Navy and U.S. Army during WWII and in law enforcement create a backdrop that readers will find fascinating. In one of his poems, he tells his family that his PTSD developed during his military and law enforcement service and “burdened him as a man, camouflage trauma.” Get yours at t16books.com! #tactical16 #t16books #survivethenightbook #warbooks #booksaboutwar #militarybooks #airforcebooks #militarystories #veteranbooks #veteranauthors #booksformilitary #booksforvets #learnlikethemilitary #militarylessons #oddsnendsinrhymebook
Women Overseas❤ In these Red Cross memoirs, some 30 women tell their stories of volunteer work with the Canadian Red Cross Corps in overseas postings during World War Two and the Korean War. These dramatic narratives take us across oceans infested with enemy submarines to witness Canadian women on duty in the UK, in Europe and in Asia. The volunteers shouldered challenging and often dangerous jobs, working as nurse's aides, ambulance drivers, welfare officers, cooks, transport drivers and in the social clubs Canadian soldiers visited on leave. We learn how it feels to survive daily bombings and severe food shortages, to witness death and destruction all around, and to acquire the spirit and courage exhibited by so many 'ordinary' people during the war. Laced with humour and filled with grace, these stories are a testament to the vital yet often overlooked responsibilities that thousands of women gallantly accepted for the Allied war effort. The book contains many period photographs as well as an illuminating introduction to the Canadian Red Cross Corps.

In his book, Tomorrow’s Yesterdays, Matt sends his teen readers on a perilous journey as they follow the adventures of 14-year-old Orion “Ryan” Cooper after he falls through a time gap. The teen is living a quiet life in the Northwest as an aspiring high school athlete when he suddenly plummets into a time hole, landing in 1920’s Chicago. Cooper is rescued and sent home by the Special Historic Operations Council (SHOC), a collection of governments woefully outgunned and way behind fanatical ideologues, the organization is fighting. All Ryan Cooper ever wanted was to enter high school with the rest of his friends and be normal. But being recruited by the time-traveling Special Historic Operations Council (SHOC) to help save history as humanity knows it quickly ruined that. What seems like the adventure of a lifetime turns deadly when Ryan’s minor role in a mission to Nazi Germany forces him to choose between running to safety or seeing the mission through. From crowded Nazi streets to the Parthenon of Ancient Athens, Ryan fights a one-man war against the organization known only as Legion: a time-hopping terrorist group dedicated to the destruction of mankind for their own ends. Whether he fights or runs, death seems the only guarantee, and Ryan can only pray he stays one step ahead… Get yours at t16books.com. 🇺🇸 #tactical16 #t16books #survivethenightbook #warbooks #booksaboutwar #militarybooks #airforcebooks #militarystories #veteranbooks #veteranauthors #booksformilitary #booksforvets #learnlikethemilitary #militarylessons #timetravelbooks #timetravel
