Ok so I'm looking for a few things - Mainly, what weapons will I be carrying if or when I get deployed (if any other than my sidearm), and what other equipment does a 68X carry. If you could, also explain the differences in equipment and weapons from a 68X stationed at a hospital, and a 68X stationed on the line or FOB. Thanks.

Answer
A couch.

What is a full time behavioral health facility?

My soon to be ex husband is military... he was checked into a full time behavioral health facility and being discharged from the military. My question is what is a full time behavioral health facility? Does that mean he is "committed" and staying there full time?

Answer
I've never heard of that. Maybe he just lives there for awhile?

What is the purpose of military behavioral health?

One of my friends in my unit is about to go see a mental health professional at behavioral health for "abnormal stress reactions". The guy gets stressed out somewhat easily and it has sometimes had an effect on his job performance. However, he does try hard and can usually get the job done. However, his stress management issues have led the CO to send him to mental health. He is worried that he might get discharged or barred from deployment. What are the chances of this happpening?

Answer
He might not be deployable for now, but the point of behavioral health is to treat mental illnesses. Mental health problems are becoming more accepted as the illnesses they are, rather than something that can't be cured.
