パネル盤: 軍の needs gun safety 対策 to 限界 自殺s

WASHINGTON (AP) - The 弁護 Department should 器具/実施する a 一連の gun safety 対策 to 減ずる 自殺s in the 軍隊, an 独立した・無所属 委員会 recommended Friday, calling for waiting periods for the 購入(する) of 小火器 and 弾薬/武器 by service members on 軍の 所有物/資産/財産.

The パネル盤 said the department should also raise the 最小限 age for service members to buy guns and 弾薬/武器 to 25, and should also 要求する anyone living in 軍の 住宅 to 登録(する) all 個人として owned 小火器. In 新規加入, the パネル盤 said the department should 制限する the 所有/入手 and 貯蔵 of 個人として owned 小火器 in 軍の 兵舎 and dorms.

The 報告(する)/憶測 反映するs 増加するing 関心s about 自殺s in the 軍の, にもかかわらず more than a 10年間 of programs and other 成果/努力s to 妨げる them and 刺激(する) greater 介入 by 指揮官s, friends and family members. But gun safety and 支配(する)/統制する 対策 are likely to 直面する 抵抗, 特に in 議会, where such 法律制定 has struggled in 最近の years.

The 委員会 解放(する)d its findings in a 報告(する)/憶測 Friday, 説 the 米国防総省 needs to 改善する and modernize its 自殺 予防 training, and take steps to 演説(する)/住所 危険 factors such as alcohol use, ーするために 演説(する)/住所 recurring spikes in 自殺s.

"にもかかわらず かなりの 投資 in 自殺 予防 戦略s, DOD (the 弁護 Department) has shown an 増加するing 傾向 over a 15-year period in 自殺 率s," said Jerry Reed, a 顧問 for the パネル盤.

The 報告(する)/憶測 said the 軍の 組織/基盤/下部構造 and other systems have not kept up with the changes in 科学(工学)技術. All of that, it said, 増加するs 強調する/ストレス and the 危険s of 自殺.

確認するing findings in 年次の 自殺 報告(する)/憶測s, the パネル盤 公式文書,認めるd that about 66% of all active-義務 軍の 自殺s -- and more than 70% of those by 国家の Guard and Reserve members - are done with 小火器. It said 減ずるing 接近 to guns could 妨げる some deaths.

Craig Bryan, a 臨床の psychologist and member of the 自殺 予防 and 返答 独立した・無所属 Review 委員会, said the department shoul d slow 負かす/撃墜する 軍隊/機動隊s' 接近 to guns - 特に those bought in 蓄える/店s on bases - so people under 強調する/ストレス can 生き残る periods of high 危険.

He に例えるd the 拡大するd gun safety 対策 to 必要物/必要条件s that the department puts on motorcycle usage - such as 委任統治(領)d helmets - that are often more strict than some 明言する/公表する 法律s. Asked how likely such changes would be, Bryan said he believes 軍隊/機動隊s are more receptive to such 限界s than 非軍事のs may be.

"My sense is that so many of us who have served have lost friends to 自殺. And so many of those 自殺s 伴う/関わる 小火器, that we 認める that there is a 関係 between the two," said Bryan. "Many of us are tired of our friends and loved ones dying and we 認める that we have to 絶対 take on this 問題/発行する."

He said the choice of age 25 was driven by historical patterns and data, which showed that half of all 軍の 自殺s happened between the ages of 21 and 25, and that the use of guns for 自殺s by service members - 特に men - 増加するd after the age of 21.

The パネル盤 also 結論するd that alcohol use and 財政上の problems are often connected to 自殺s. As a result, it recommended the department 直す/買収する,八百長をする 支払う/賃金 systems to 避ける 延期するs, and 演説(する)/住所 過度の alcohol use.

The (売買)手数料,委託(する)/委員会/権限 also said the department's "コンビナート/複合体 and rigid hierarchical structure" 妨げるs its ability to do 効果的な 自殺 予防.

自殺s across the active-義務 U.S. 軍の 減少(する)d a bit during the 18 months from 2021 through June 2022, driven by sharp 減少(する)s in the 空気/公表する 軍隊 and 海洋 軍団 last year and a 類似の 拒絶する/低下する の中で Army 兵士s during the first six months of this year, によれば a 米国防総省 報告(する)/憶測.

But those numbers show a 劇の 逆転 of what has been a 公正に/かなり 安定した 増加する in 最近の years.
