desertcart.com: Rule Number Two: Lessons I Learned in a Combat Hospital: 9780316067911: Kraft, Heidi Squier: Books

Review: Rule Number Three - Rule number three: Rule number one and two compel us to provide our armed forces with the compassionate combat stress care of doctors like Lieutenant Commander Heidi Squier Kraft. Rule number one and two refer to a particular episode of M*A*S*H. Use the search inside feature for more about this. I met Alan Alda once. Having followed his career, I noticed he gives medical commencements. His advice after a near death surgical crisis is, "Treat me like a human being". That is exactly what Dr Kraft describes in her memoir as a Navy flight psychologist, marine pilot's wife, submariners daughter, colleague friend and confidant. She is one of the Marines "Alpha" female care givers at the Combat Hospital in Anbar Province, Iraq. I recall reading the news story of Marine Corporal Dunham's heroism and susequent Medal of Honor. It is comforting to know he was treated with such dignity and compassion by Dr. Kraft and her team at Alpha Surgical. This book is a compelling read and allays some of my fears about how our military addresses combat stress. You will meet members of our military requiring the assistance of Heidi Kraft. Many looking for someone to talk with, at Alpha Surgical Hospital, so they can rejoin their units. Some would not make it. I was also pleased to see 10% of Dr. Kraft's royalties are donated to the Injured Marine Semper Fi Fund. As if she hasn't already given enough. Ma'am, thank you!
Review: A fascinating glimpse into the psychology of war - An excellent book, it makes you think deeply about questions that have no answers. When a person has to choose between killing a child to possibly protect his unit, and then realizing that said child didn't really pose a threat; what advice could a person give? It delves into questions like this, artfully interspersed with recollections about the war, giving you a glimpse deep into the author's soul. Artfully written, and beautifully expressed, it makes one feel as though they were living the actual experience. I'm considering joining the Navy, and to get an idea of the worst case scenario, this is what I chose to read. An exceptional piece of literature; it introduces you to war in a way you can barely imagine.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Real-life description of a mother serving in Iraq
*by W***G on December 9, 2014*

This book describes the experience of a navy psychologist in Iraq. Not only is the main character a Navy psychologists , but she is a woman and the mother was left her children. The book speaks eloquently about pressures the woman fields, but need to be with her children and the need to serve her country. It also speaks graphically about the hardships of being of the rack. Everything from the camel spiders, the lack of water, soldiers dying in your arms , and some just barely making it out to another hospital. For the psychologist also had to do triage duty for the hospital she stationed at. The book is filled with images that are hard to take in some places. It speaks so well of the sacrifices that are people made a rack. It is a book that everyone should read wants to learn about that. It does not honor war, but it does honor the people, the young men who fought it. I think you will enjoy it.
