A stand-down of the Army’s entire recruiting force, ordered by Army Secretary Pete Geren, will take place Friday.Geren ordered the stand-down after a wide-ranging investigation into four suicides in the Houston Recruiting Battalion.
In addition
A separate stand-down, for all soldiers, will take place over a 30-day period beginning Feb. 15. During those 30 days, commanders across the Army will take time to provide their soldiers with training ranging from how to recognize suicidal behavior and intervention at the buddy level.
Hopefully this will be a positive. I'm curious if this was in the works or if heat was applied after January 20th.
