这篇文章借鉴了古希腊的勇士传说和其他传统，阐明了上个世纪在美国军队服役的现代勇士(MW)的旅程。然后，它求助于利益相关者，他们可以帮助目前的MW重新融入平民生活，并减轻自杀风险。到目前为止，在没有现有和协调的地方、联邦、非营利和私人系统的情况下，9/11事件后大规模杀伤性武器退伍后的自杀率大幅上升，特别是年轻和女性大规模杀伤性武器。这在一定程度上是由于军方在MW旅程的出发和启动阶段提供了单位、领导者和任务，从而满足了MW的许多需求。然而，随着大规模杀伤性武器退出军队并面临重返社会的艰巨任务，部队、领导人和任务的缺席导致心理健康恶化，自杀风险增加。这篇文章主要由9/11后的大规模杀人者撰写，为利益相关者提出建议，以更好地重新融入大规模杀伤性武器并降低自杀风险。作者努力开发一种系统，满足MW重新融入社会的需求，并使MW能够很好地继续他们的下一个‘使命’--服务和改善社会。
This article draws upon the legends of warriors from ancient Greece and other traditions to illuminate the journey of Modern Warriors (MWs) who have served in the United States military over the last century. It then turns to stakeholders that can assist current MWs in their reintegration to civilian life and mitigate suicide risk. Until this point, without an existing and coordinated local, federal, non-profit, and private system, rates of suicide for post-9/11 MWs after leaving the military have greatly increased, especially for young and women MWs. This is due in part to the military satisfying many of MWs' needs by providing units, leaders, and a mission during the Departure and Initiation stages of the MW journey. However, as MWs exit the military and face the difficult task of reintegration, the absence of units, leaders, and mission leads to deteriorating psychological health and increasing suicide risk. Written primarily by post-9/11 MWs, this article proposes recommendations for stakeholders to better reintegrate MWs and mitigate suicide risk. The authors strive to develop a system that satisfies MWs' reintegration needs and enables MWs to be well positioned to continue their next 'mission' - to serve and improve society.
