Are you stuck in the system also?

RaginRanger will respond to any comment--on any post--asking for help on your situation.
This blog "moderates" posts, meaning that your post will NOT be posted publicly if you request that your question remain private.

I am not a lawyer, but I have been in this fight long enough to at least point you to help in most cases. I'll help write a Memorandum For Record and/or the Commander if needed. Sometimes just getting a new perspective from someone who's been there, but doesn't have personal ties to
you, can make things more clear.

The most important thing is for those of us who have made it through, to be here for those still fighting through ~

New blogger here!

Yes, there's a new face on this blog.
Which is a very good thing, because RaginRanger and I are too paranoid after our experiences with the military medical system (and too beat down by current medical messes, story to follow), to write nearly as much as we'd like.
Carissa, on the other hand, is a freakin powerhouse of expression-- a proud military wife whose husband will deploy again in a few short months. She also is a lawyer, mother & gifted organizer-- in the leadership of VMFP (Veterans & Military Families for Progress) and the Founder/President of MSC, Military Spouses for Change, at the link above.
As anyone who's been in the military knows, it's a full-time job just being a supportive spouse alone. The fact that Carissa has been the driving force behind a new, nonprofit organization to empower military wives, along with her family obligations, speaks volumes about her level of passion and devotion to do all she can to do right by troops & the wives who go through everything alongside those troops.

We are thrilled and honored to have her as a contributor.
I also hope her postings will shame my depressed, sorry ass into pushing the "post to blog" button more often instead of stewing in silence :-)
Her postings about her organization, he life as the wife of an Army Blackhawk pilot, and news of interest to military spouses are on her blog:
