For the 139th’s Officer Candidate School Class 61, the Chancellorsville Battlefield near Fredericksburg, Virginia, May 3-4, gave the students an opportunity to discuss tactics and evaluate the decisions of leaders who came before them. The 16 students were each assigned a certain leader at different points in the battle and presented the information they gathered about what the leaders were doing during specific moments in the battle. “We have to learn from history, or we keep making the same mistakes,” said 1st Lt. Miles Komuves, an OCS instructor with the 139th RTI. “It makes it real. You can teach lessons in the classroom and people learn different ways, but here they are walking around on some of the same terrains and ex- ploring some of these ideas that they learn in the classroom, and applying them out there. The value of learning from history never di- minishes.” Maj. Ryan Shields, the OCS company commander with the 139th RTI, said the goal is for students to be able to look at the decisions some leaders made during the battle and formulate how they would have made those same decisions with the skills they have learned through the OCS program. “It gives them a good understanding of how leaders in certain positions formulate and execute plans,” Shields said. “It also gives them a great opportunity to visualize what they have learned in the OCS program and they can apply that moving forward.”

If someone is on psychiatric medication, it can ironically increase the risk of a suicide attempt. An example would be if someone was too depressed to take action, may now have the energy to carry it out with the use of antidepressants. That’s why when such medications are given the patient must be monitored closely for the first several weeks. Supplementing medical therapy with social engagement helps. Friends, relatives, colleagues should look for changes. Some- times, ask bluntly “Are you planning to kill yourself?” and no matter what their answers are, keep an eye on them. If something that makes them happy no longer has that effect, then it is a sign that something is wrong. Sometimes the act or talk of suicide is a cry for help.
