		<description><![CDATA["The hidden wounds of war do not heal when left unattended; instead, they may fester for years in depression, homelessness, addiction, and a half-lived existence finished by suicide, which doesn't end the suffering for those who knew and loved the one who died. Unattended, moral injury will linger for generations. Understanding moral injury is a necessary first step in a much longer societal healing process. We should begin that process today." ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA["In this article I will consider what has been accurately termed the "invisible wounds of war" and three perspectives on healing, e.g., the Clinical Model as set forth in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, which views the invisible wounds of war as mental illness; the Normal Response Model as elucidated by Paula J. Caplan, in her new book , When Johnny and Jane Come Marching Home: How All of Us Can Help Veterans, which views a veteran's "disturbed and lasting emotional response" to war as a normal response to an abnormal situation; and my C ombat Injury Model, where such injuries and veteran readjustment difficulties are regarded as the wounds of war, specifically Combat Related Psychological, Emotional, and Moral (PEM) Injuries. I will begin, however, by providing some background and relate an account of my coming home from war, which though personal, is, I am confident, not unlike many others who shared the experience."

		<description><![CDATA["BELCHERTOWN – As part of its effort to draw attention to suicides by veterans and combat stress, the Cape Cod chapter of Veterans for Peace is renaming itself in honor of Cpl. Jeffrey M. Lucey.

Lucey, a Belchertown resident, committed suicide in 2004 after returning from a tour of duty with the Marines in Iraq.
The renaming will take place March 18 at a ceremony at Barnstable High School, 744 West Main St., Hyannis."]]></description>
