Moving out of state is not an easy task! While my clients were seasoned professionals due to moving over and over again with the military, I was happy to be able to take a little bit of that stress off their plate this time. #testimonial #review #moving #arizonarealestate #gilbertrealestate #phoenixrealestate #queencreekrealestate #mesarealestate #apachejunctionrealestate #chandlerrealestate #arizonarealtor #gilbertrealtor #queencreekrealtor #apachejunctionrealtor #chandlerrealtor #mesarealtor #phoenixrealtor #movingtoarizona

IMHO the ability to land in degraded environments is the single biggest improvement towards flight safety. The larger cabin, the more powerful GE engines and the fly by wire flight controls make this aircraft a winner for the Marines.
The CH-53K King Stallion is the most powerful helicopter in the United States military. Sikorsky Test Pilot, Sean Maloney, walks you through some key features of this heavy-lift workhorse. #Oorah! #SemperFi #ModernDayMarine #MDM24

It is no surprise that transitioning from military service to civilian life can be a daunting journey. As a former member of the Australian Army who voluntarily exited in August 2022, I am compelled to shed light on some of the key experiences I encountered during my transition to the civilian world. While my account is not exhaustive (sadly so), it underscores the need for enhanced support mechanisms within the Australian Defence Force (ADF) to ensure smoother transitions for all personnel. Here are a couple of highlights from my transition: 1. One of the initial setbacks I encountered was the loss of my appreciation of service certificate, a symbolic recognition of my commitment and contributions. Upon its eventual retrieval after my efforts to track it down, I was dismayed to find that my name had been misspelled — an oversight that reflects a lack of attention to detail within administrative processes. 2. Communication breakdowns further compounded my transition experience. As an example, during a phone conversation, I was instructed to respond to emails post-separation so that my career coach would quote "know I am still alive”— a direction that struck me as both insensitive and trivialising of my departure from military service. There were many additional compounding events (submitted to the inquiry) which lead to my urgency of seeking help, where I sought solace in the guidance of a psychologist to navigate the emotional toll of my transition. It became painfully apparent that the lack of adequate mental health resources and stigma surrounding seeking help within the military exacerbates the vulnerability of transitioning personnel. The first time I saw a psychologist was during my transition period… …I guess, I am just another Veteran who is struggling from a Defence transition. __________________________ If you need additional support, please contact the appropriate hotline for your state: NSW Crisis Line 1800 011 511 QLD Crisis Line 1300 642 255 NSW Crisis Line 1300 651 251 SA Crisis Line 13 14 65 WA Crisis Line 13 11 14 NT Crisis Line 1800 682 288 8.6 Australians die every day by suicide. 75% of those who take their own life are male.

The Royal Commission asked Defence’s Chief of Personnel, Lieutenant General Natasha Fox, about the importance of being properly farewelled from the Australian Defence Force during the inquiry’s final public hearing in Sydney. Counsel Assisting the Royal Commission cited lived experience evidence of some members leaving the military with just their mess bill. Lieutenant General Fox was asked what steps Defence was taking to ensure personnel are properly farewelled. #DVSRC

The flight operations restriction for all DoD V-22 Ospreys (including the Navy CMV-22) now appears confirmed, per Military.com reporting. "The services are barred from flying the controversial tiltrotor aircraft more than 30 minutes away from a suitable airfield to divert to in case anything goes wrong." "Cmdr. Beth Teach, a spokesperson for Naval Air Forces, confirmed to Military.com on Thursday that the restriction was handed down by the V-22 Joint Program Office, part of Naval Air Systems Command, and is a requirement that all the services are following." What exactly does this mean for our Osprey fleet? Is this simply a phased return to full operations? Or does this mean a problem has been identified, but not a solution, and the expectation is maintaining 30 minutes from a divert will allow safe recovery in the expected event this same issue returns?
