Creating a status identifier will provide them with the recognition and access to services they deserve, which have long been overlooked and out of reach. Nevada\u2019s Creech Air Force Base is one of the highest operational tempo RPA installations throughout the Air Force.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, RPA crews fly combat missions from the United States, but they have no identifier in their records for combat operations performed because they are not physically located in a combat zone. If a crew member decides to change career fields within the military or leave the service, there are often barriers for the member to receive the appropriate mental health services for those exposed to a combat environment because they lack a combat status identifier. This makes it difficult for members to receive prompt mental health care while in service or through the VA once they separate, despite the continuing mental health impacts of these operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cRemotely Piloted Aircraft crew like those at Creech Air Force Base in Nevada perform combat operations but have no status identifier in their records for having done so, making it challenging to receive the support and care they deserve once they transition,\u201d <strong>dijo el Senador Rosen.<\/strong> \u201cThat\u2019s why I\u2019m introducing this bipartisan bill to establish a status identifier for these crews in order to help improve the recognition they\u2019ve earned and to ensure their future care. I\u2019ll always fight to support Nevada\u2019s servicemembers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNow more than ever, military missions use airborne ISR platforms to meet our national security objectives,\u201d<strong> said Senator Cramer. <\/strong>\u201cRemotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) crews, including Fargo\u2019s Happy Hooligans and the airmen from the 319th at Grand Forks, are an integral part of the nation\u2019s Joint Force. The CARE for RPA Crews Act recognizes the accomplishments of RPA crews and identifies the appropriate resources to keep our airmen fit for duty.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">###<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WASHINGTON, DC \u2013 U.S. Senators Jacky Rosen (D-NV) and Kevin Cramer (R-ND), members of the Senate Armed Services Committee, introduced the bipartisan Combat Action Recognition and Evaluation (CARE) for Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) Crews Act to establish a status identifier for remotely piloted aircraft (RPA) crew who conduct combat operations, to help increase their access [&hellip;]<\/p>","protected":false},"author":22,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-15938","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-press_release"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.9 -
