What impact will Iraq war call-up have

CSM Hudson Represents All Enlisted Members of Transformed Guard

By SGT Jim Greenhill, National Guard Bureau, Courtesy of National Guard Bureau Public Affairs
1/9/06, Arlington, VA

…CSM David Ray Hudson … uniquely qualified to be the senior enlisted advisor to the chief of the National Guard Bureau.

He eventually became the ninth state command sergeant major for Alaska… As a civilian, he served with the Alaska Highway Patrol, advancing from trooper to captain.

He observed how the Guard has transformed significantly in the two decades since he joined in ’84.

“When I joined the Alaska Army National Guard, the National Guard in Alaska had never deployed anywhere,” he said. “During World War II, the Alaskan Territorial Guard, which was made up of Eskimo scouts, had basically been forward-deployed by being in Alaska. Once in a while there might be a two-week annual training tour somewhere other than Alaska, but generally speaking even all the annual trainings were right in Alaska, because we were considered Arctic warriors, cold-weather experts. So everybody came to Alaska.”

And today?

“Today,” CSM Hudson said, “Alaska has deployed probably 70 percent of its resources.” [emphasis added]

In 1995, CSM Hudson served as command sergeant major of the 2nd Scout Battalion in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta in west Alaska on the Bering Sea. The majority of the battalion’s Citizen-Soldiers were Yupik Eskimos, hunters who live on walrus, seals, whale, fish, moose and caribou.

“They had never left their villages, where they still have a subsistence lifestyle,” he said. “They primarily live off the game that they catch.

“Approximately 300 of them right now are sitting in Kuwait,” he said. “The Guard of today is nothing like it was 23 years ago. It’s a complete change. It is now an operational, professionally organized institution that does tremendously more than two weeks out of the year and one weekend a month.”….

655,000 or 48,000 Iraqi deaths

Iraq casualty figures open up new battleground
By Dan Murphy | Staff writer of The Christian Science Monitor

  • http://www.csmonitor.com/2006/1013/p01s04-woiq.html

“The possibility of introducing bias in any kind of survey is real, and you spend more time designing the survey to eliminate the sources of bias then actually carrying it out,” he says. “One of the real risks in this is that people report deaths that don’t occur, so we did ask for death certificates. And in 92 percent of cases, they were provided.”

To be sure, the researchers of the Lancet study says possible errors leave a range between a low of 392,979 additional deaths and a high of 942,636. The 601,000 figure is the median.

The commonly accepted numbers until now have been much lower than Lancet surveys. The Iraq Body Count, a website that tracks civilian deaths in the war by compiling data from news reports, estimates 48,000 deaths have been reported in the media, while the Iraq Index sponsored by the Brookings Institution in Washington has counted 61,000 civilian deaths. President Bush estimated 30,000 civilian deaths late last year.

Fortunately,

  • The Lancet paper on the Iraq War toll – http://scienceblogs.com/effectmeasure/2006/10/ the_lancet_paper_on_the_iraq_w.php

presents some the background to the current study.

The purpose in presenting this here is to examine the science, the evidence.

What about the science? It doesn’t take much reflection to see that estimating mortality from an invasion with a disastrous and chaotic aftermath is no simple matter.

The Reveres are pretty good at asking the questions you should be asking of medical or health studies. What else could account for the results? If the alternatives are not feasible, then the study has greater validity, whether or not we “like” the results.

Jody has a nice quiet story this morning about a disquieting deployment into the Iraq war.

Alaska Communities Struggle with National Guard Deployments

Listen to this story… by Jody Seitz

Morning Edition, July 4, 2006 · National Guard deployments to Iraq are drawing on a unique population of older Guard members in Alaska. The absence of these men from their communities poses distinct challenges to families already stressed by the high price of energy, the lack of jobs and, in some communities, the loss of municipal services. Jody Seitz of member station KDLG reports.

What impact will Iraq war call-up have

Eskimo Troops Brace for Iraq
Alaskan Guard units are called up for the first time in decades. Villages worry about losing men.
By Sam Howe Verhovek, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer

June 5, 2006
KONGIGANAK, Alaska http://www.commerce.state.ak.us/dca/photos/comm_photos.cfm?comm=Kongiganak

….In this village of 386 people, six men have been notified to report for duty next month. ..The call-up in the marshy delta country to the west reaches villages so remote that there are only two ways to get here most of the year — by airplane or snowmobile — and a third from May to September, or perhaps October in a warm year with a late freeze-up: the river.

So in places with Eskimo names such as Kongiganak, Kwigillingok and Manokotak, elder leaders and wives find themselves planning how to carry on without strong young men who serve as vital providers of food….

===========================================
I did some calculations to see what numerical impact (and ultimately biocultural impact) the call-up will have.

  • What will the effect be on the best leadership available, long-term and short-term?
  • What about on subsequent “leaders” because there will be fewer strong men as the adolescent males grow into their leadership?
  • What is the economic impact, e.g., will families have to move to Bethel or other villages because their breadwinner is gone? What social effects might there be as a consequence?
  • How will preparedness and rescue occur during the autumn storm flooding and erosion season?
  • Which other people will be able to assume the troops’ role or to share the load, e.g., are women allowed? males under 18? are there sufficient elders?
  • How do we integrate our veterans back into our time, space, culture?
  • What questions should we ask so we can be ready?

2005 Population by Gender and Age:

Male: 196
Female: 163
total 359

Median Age: 21.8

Pop. Age 18 and over: 204
Pop. Age 21 and over: 184
Pop. Age 62 and over: 15
============================================
6% of all men between 21 and 65 years of 386 pop. This assumes that all 98 men have a high school degree (see the R. BRETT STIRLING article
http://alaskatheviewfromuphere.blogspot.com/2006/06/ most-recent-adn-article.html and none have domestic violence or felony/alcohol convictions. I would guess the call-up affects over 10% of those in economic/leadership roles.

[R. Brett Stirling writes well and thoughtfully about living in rural Alaska, http://alaskatheviewfromuphere.blogspot.com/ and for the Anchorage Daily News, http://tinyurl.com/s6p5h]

I hadn’t looked at the ClustrMap in awhile so I was quite pleased to see all the little dots from visitors far from the usual locations (click on the map in the sidebar to see a larger image in a new tab). A nice surprise is that the maps now come with a table of the country of origin– a good way to test one’s geography knowledge by checking the dot location with the country name. This is the country of the IP address used by visitors.

I wish it were easier to visit in reverse, in analog or digital space.

[This is a housekeeping entry.]

I suspect many readers visit for specific posts and others are using feed readers for posts and comments. While the blog format is very flexible for information and discussion it’s technical restrictions are a little challenging for me to keep folks up to date on revisions and to highlight other posts of possible interest.

Index or Contents posts like this one [such as the alphabetical listing or the reverse chronological listing] will be cross-indexed on the Table of Contents page. Because it is a regular post, feed readers will be notified.

“Popular posts” is one such tool provided by WordPress.com. I doubt that it is very accurate for actual readers but the relative rankings provide an alternative way to find items of interest. I wish there was a way to get the full set of data they collect, especially for the referrers (see http://cerebraloddjobs.edublogs.org/2006/09/30/referrers-in-edublogs/), to see what it is that people are looking for. This would help to revise information or add new information [so would reader comments and queries]. Unfortunately,WP.com don’t have a consistent way to present this data to blog administrators (asking for daily referrers gives a very different set of information than getting the weekly or yearly referrers. Same data but the presentation to the human at this end is patchy.) Notice how the titles are truncated, for example.

The ranking for 2007 is given first and then for 2008 (up to July 12)

Alaska Territorial Guard celebrates 60th anniversary

18 Thursday Oct 2007

Posted by mpb in Eskimo Guard, history

Bumsted, Grassroots Science, YKAlaska

As our Guard returns from Kuwait, the anniversary of the original “Eskimo Guard”. The Yukon Kuskokwim Delta’s troops are supposed to arrive in BEThel late tonight.

  • See previous posts here, Eskimo Guard

The version of the article published in the Anchorage Daily News is a bit more complete and has a different set of photos.

Web posted October 16, 2007
http://www.juneauempire.com/stories/101607/sta_20071016015.shtml
RACHEL D’ORO The Associated Press

This year is the 60th anniversary of the disbanding of the civilian force formed to protect Alaska villages from the Japanese during World War II.

ANCHORAGE – Harold Bahr became a man at 11, when he joined a largely Native militia called up to protect the vast territory of Alaska from the threat of Japanese aggression during World War II…

Despite his age, Bahr was eligible to sign up to defend his homeland. This was 17 years before statehood and older recruits would be armed with outmoded World War I Enfield rifles. Some of the younger members, including Bahr, would make do with nonshooting wooden replicas, but it didn’t matter.

…Bahr, 76, is among an estimated 300 members still living from the original 6,600-member unit to be commemorated Thursday, Alaska Territorial Guard day…

Nicknamed Uncle Sam’s Men, the territorial guards were organized by Army Air Corps Maj. Marvin “Muktuk” Marston. A charismatic orator, Marston traveled by dog sled across the frozen tundra, delivering impassioned speeches to recruit boys as young as Bahr or well into their 80s, as well as men of fighting age who were exempt from war duty. Some women who could outshoot the men also joined up…. The guard was disbanded with little fanfare on March 31, 1947, almost two years after the war ended. Some members liked the camaraderie and protective stance so much they kept up their drills. A few units remained active right up to the reorganization of the Alaska National Guard in 1949

This is evidently a press release from the medical company hired by the VA (Veterans Affairs) to assist military returning to civilian life and their families. The release was printed in a Chinese news service which GoogleAlert sent to me.

TriWest and Alaska VA Hosted First-Ever PTSD State-Wide Seminars to Reach Rural Health Care Providers – China
… of returning Alaska National Guard troops throughout the state.
Conferences were presented in six locations including Juneau, Sitka,

http://usstock.jrj.com.cn/news/2007-10-04/000002748897.html

PHOENIX, Oct. 3 /PRNewswire/ — As part of their continuing efforts to address the needs of Alaska National Guard members, TriWest Healthcare Alliance and the Alaska VA Healthcare System partnered to host their first-ever “Combat Stress Conference” throughout the state from Sept. 12-29. The seminars reached nearly 200 community-based health care providers that care for the thousands of returning Alaska National Guard troops throughout the state. […]

I hope more than health care providers were involved. The church groups can be very important in some areas as well as less formal local groups. Schools also need to be involved to assist children.
