2016 年，太平洋潜艇部队寻求解决此类问题，推出了一项针对“沉默服务”的心理健康计划。
“Years of constant training, separation from family, long deployments and work-ups or even misconceptions can lead even the best submariners down a terrifying and lonely state of mental illness in a submarine community historically known as the silent service,” the article by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Michael H. Lee, in 2016, said.
The program entailed a pair of hospital corpsmen scheduling daily visits and client hours, in order to “identify and educate Sailors with various psychiatric illnesses in Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam.”
“We assist Sailors with everything from depression, anxiety, anger, relationship issues, work stress, loss of a loved one, and sleep hygiene,” Hospital Corpsman 2nd Class Seth Sweger said in the 2016 article.. “A large portion of our job is education, but we’re also there in case a Sailor wants to blow off steam.”
核操作学校的麻烦
早在 2023 年，NBC 新闻就海军核行动兄弟会中对精神疾病的担忧进行了报道。
While nuclear operations are one of the most prestigious assignments in the Navy, “a dozen current and former nuclear-trained sailors, as well as loved ones of such operators who have died by suicide, said the unique challenges and pressures of the job have led some to suffer from severe mental health issues beginning at the school and extending well beyond graduation,” NBC reported at the time.
“Aboard submarines and aircraft carriers, the living conditions become more taxing and are unlike ‘anything else anywhere,’” Douglas Bainbridge, an Electrician’s Mate First Class who taught at the school, told NBC in 2023.
