Military – USAF Fly, Fight And Win
ByEveryone has heard about the great people of our nation. Not the founding fathers or any of the others of history, but the current heroes of today. There is the Army, the Navy and the Marines, but also among them is the United States Air Force, which is the aerial and space warfare branch of the United States armed forces. Before September 18, 1947, they were a part of the Army, but branched out separately after the National Security Act of 1947.
Other elements within 22 SAS include a Operations Research Cell which develops new techniques and equipment and a Training Wing which handles selection and training for the regiment.
Roles of the Special Air Service
22 SAS is perhaps best known for its counter-terrorism (CT) role. The British public first heard of the Regiment when, live on television, B Squadron brought a siege of the Iranian Embassy in London to a dramatic end in 1980. Each squadron within 22 SAS six-months on CT duty, on permanent standby to respond to terror incidents at home or abroad.
The leaders of the Force generally enforce and maintain three core values meant to inspire Airmen to do only their best and to improve upon their best. The Airmen are to learn these values, which tie them to history’s greatest warriors and public servants, to live by these standards and to cherish them.

It means practicing honesty, responsibility, accountability, justice, openness, self-respect and humility. To summarize, an Airmen with integrity can grasp the concept of defending the Constitution and is sobered by the act.
Afghanistan
22 SAS was deployed to Afghanistan in the early stages of the war. The Regiment carried out a number of initial reconnaissance operations which included carrying out battle damage assessments following US air strikes. In November 2001, 2 SAS Squadrons attacked and neutralized a Taliban / Al Qaeda opium factory in Southern Afghanistan.
Drug use is another major problem among soldiers. This is not because they typically hang around with people who have drugs, but they have enough money to purchase drugs. Most soldiers have extra income and people who sell drugs will be able to capitalize on that. Some drugs can cause soldiers to further hallucinate when they are having a PTSD episode. This could lead them to further think that the situation is real and cause real harm to themselves or the community.
Luckily there is hope for these soldiers. PTSD can be treated through therapy, counseling and contact with a doctor. If a soldier is experiencing an addiction they can talk with a addiction counselor who can put them into a treatment program that will assist them in becoming clean
