1. U.S. Air Force's Special Warfare Preservice Instructors' Training: A Systematic Needs Assessment Approach.

Abstract

This needs assessment identified the competencies, subcompetencies, and tasks to include in the preservice instructor course of the U.S. Air Force's Special Warfare Training Wing. Using the Borich needs assessment model, this study solicited the perceptions of current instructors on the importance of and their preparedness to execute competency-based tasks using Likert-type scales. A mean weighted discrepancy score (MWDS) was calculated for each task as a measure of training need. A steering committee served to triangulate survey findings, refine the competency list and determine if the task should be included in the preservice instructor course. A high MWDS did not mean the task belonged in the preservice instructor course if the task was suited to experienced instructors. Overall, 135 of 142 tasks were recommended for inclusion in the preservice course to provide broad exposure to pedagogical concepts. Recommendations were made for extending the use of MWDS during task analysis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

In mid-fifties helicopters were already an indivisible part of military air forces all over the world. In terms of the Warsaw Pact the army of Soviet Union and subsequently its satellite states got the first helicopters. In 1956 Czechoslovak military air force also received the first Mil Mi-4 helicopters. Since 1959 Mi-1 light helicopters were used for pilots training, however, in early sixties there was a shortage of backup pilots within military units. The only Czechoslovak liaison helicopter regiment did not manage to train its own pilots, much less backup pilots. Therefore, unused military helicopters HC-102 were incorporated into Svazarm aero clubs (Svaz pro spolupráci s armádou - The Union for Cooperation with The Army). Flying with Mi-1 started in 1965. In course of eleven years a huge number of pilots were trained within aeroclubs, which cooperated with military air force, to join the army in case of need. In 1974 the conception of backup pilots training in aeroclubs was re-evaluated and finished. The numerous group of pilots then got occasional trainings at army till early eighties and many of the pilots were finally employed at the police, air force or in civil sector.

Abstract

Introduction: Many epidemiologic studies have been performed in military recruit populations, but little is known about the health of those who conduct the training. This study aims to characterize the physical and mental health of a military trainer cohort.Materials and Methods: All US Air Force military training instructors (MTIs) who served between 1 October 2011 and 30 September 2016 were included in this retrospective descriptive study. All International Classification of Diseases, Ninth or Tenth Revision codes received by MTIs as inpatients or outpatients in the TRICARE system were obtained and mapped to Clinical Classifications Software levels. After excluding routine and administrative codes, the relative burden of disease by diagnostic category and subcategory was calculated, with further classification of musculoskeletal conditions by anatomic site. For all conditions accounting for at least 1.0% of the burden of care, incidence density rates and incidence rate ratios (IRRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to compare males and females.Results: A total of 1,269 MTIs received 32,601 non-administrative, non-routine diagnoses while accumulating 50,376 person-months of exposure during the surveillance period. Musculoskeletal conditions were the greatest contributor to overall disease burden, accounting for 39.1% of all diagnoses, followed by mental health (10.4%), respiratory (10.1%), and neurologic and sensory (9.8%). The burden attributed to mental health conditions decreased by 54% over the 5-year period. Twenty-three conditions accounted for at least 1.0% of the healthcare burden. The highest incidence conditions were connective tissue disease (27.18 per 1,000 person-months), non-traumatic joint disorders (25.74), upper respiratory infections (25.14), and back pain (23.70). As compared to males, females had a higher incidence of several conditions, including adjustment disorders (IRR: 2.57; 95% CI: 1.61, 4.11) and anxiety disorders (IRR: 2.24; 95% CI: 1.33, 3.77).Conclusions: Musculoskeletal conditions are the leading contributor to burden of care among US Air Force MTIs, followed by mental health, respiratory, and neurologic and sensory conditions. The burden of healthcare among US Air Force MTIs more closely resembles active component service members than recruit trainees. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
