The Air Force wants to check the post-deployment health of airmen two times: immediately after they return and after 90 to 180 days have passed. USAF just began implementing the twice-over assessments this month. Airmen fill out a four-page DOD form via the Web when prompted by their unit deployment manager. The electronic form then goes to the airman’s medical treatment facility for professional review.
The ongoing government shutdown has not slowed progress on the Joint Advanced Tactical Missile, a congressional official said, correcting a previous statement from lawmakers about the secretive program.
