    I know all too well how it has affected my family member.
    That person has had to completely start over. As a spouse, she had to get out of her situation.
    I am helping her pick up the pieces of her shattered soul.
    She has PTSD from all of the trauma she has been through.
    She has proof of all of it. Yet afraid to speak. A union with a man who has narcissistic personality disorder.

    As a manl, I find this deeply disheartening. It is my sincere hope that those responsible are held fully accountable under both military and civilian law. Their actions betray any sense of honor, as does the failure of authorities to address these issues. I commend CBS for shedding light on this matter.

    A childhood friend's mom was being abused by his military dad. It got so bad, the mom ended up leaving and moved into our spare bedroom after reporting several times. They lived on base, so his commanders knew. This was the late 80's/early 90's. I'm sad this is still happening.

    Thanks for a good report. On the DV in the military piece: this is an important issue that needs to be addressed. Who were the "inspectors general"? Were they independent or under some kind of pressure to produce favorable results to the men who violated? Many, especially men, make light of actions like these but it can be very serious to those who have been violated. Case in point - Vanessa Guillen. Whether anyone has the guts enough to admit it or not, domestic violence seriously undermines and compromises our military in many ways. It can undermine readiness, corrode cohesiveness, certainly degrades family relationships of our military families, diminishes our women in the armed forces, etc. A few years ago, there was sensible legislation to relieve some of these issues. How is it being monitored? Has it helped the way it was intended? Are people really trying to improve this or are they just making more excuses? What's being done to support people with the potential to do violence like this; i.e., support groups, therapy, etc.? This also speaks to issues of trust. If the military needs to recruit more people, people have to know the higher ups will have their backs. Otherwise, why join? Hello?
    Thanks for bringing attention to this. Please don't let this one slip through the cracks. It needs to be revisited once in awhile.

    The military doesn't have jails for domestic violence assailants. We do have correction facilities, but that's more like a mini-prison for convicted military members. Military police don't really have the authority to arrest domestic offenders when there's no jail or place to hold them for more than 24 hours. I've known a fellow female Soldier call about domestic violence from her civilIan husband, (he was physically abusing her), and all the Army could do was have him held in the MP's holding facility overnight. He came home the next day! I've also seen a civilian husband beg the MP's for help, (his wife was a Soldier.) He, the domestic violence victim, somehow ended up being kicked out of his on-post home because the rules, the commanders can also put the assailant Soldier into a spare room in the barracks to separate the couple to "cool down." After the one night, she came back home to kick him out and made him homeless. It was shameful how the MP's did nothing for him. I was young and ignorant then, and didn't know how to help him. But I know the answer now. The MP's should've called his wife's command to get the involved since the spouse couldn't kick him out of on-post housing. Simply put, the DoD needs to put more correction facilities, with the correct jurisdiction, to hold domestically violent Military members for longer than 24 hours. And they need to have the Family Readiness Group and Chaplin Unit Ministry Team have the funds and means to move the victims away from their violent military spouse.

    Great story. Amazing life. What a rip off they refused to pay for the level of accomplishment.
    How did he miss Celes King III? To the Tuskegee Airmen he was the most famous as he was civil rights along with MLK. Celes King III was an advisor to Eisenhower, Nixon, and Reagan. MLK Blvd. in L.A. was changed by Celes King III along with the MLK Parade.
    I was at the last Tuskegee Airmen's Reunion in Riverside. I went with Celes King IV. He and I were The Congress of Racial Equality of California (CORE-CA). I was the Director of Policy. Celes King IV told me about this and I thought he was kidding and yet I really wanted to not miss this opportunity to meet these incredible people. He told me they would not start the meeting until he arrived. I thought he was joking until we went through the doorway. The entire room froze and turned to watch us enter and then the meeting started. I am seldom overwhelmed, but, in their presence I was overwhelmed to be with all of them left. About the only other white people there were some of those who were in the bombers they protected. I asked the first African-American allowed to fly a jet in combat in Korea "What was the difference in tactics you used in Europe next to Korea." He answered "It's just a plane shoot it down." With that the entire place erupted in laughter. Do a piece on Celes King III, his military service which led to a generalship, and his massive effect on civil rights.
    Thanks for this story. They are so important to our future.

    All who oppose Israel will face desolation! Due to the fact that this is our creators chosen land for his Jewish children! The Jews were the first to realize that Father God made us and that he deserves worship! That makes them the first to know him and the first to receive his blessings! We should all be grateful to the Jews for that reason alone!
    Praise the Lord God forever! We are all being tested in our hearts right now to see who you want to follow, love or hate!
    I hope everyone chooses Love! Because that is what God wants us to feel for each other!
