The Missoulian: on Homeland Security


John Driscoll: Committed to help return POW-MIA Americans to U.S.

Montanans ask a good faith effort to recover the 1587 Americans still carried as POW-MIA. According to the National League of POW-MIA Families, as of Jan. 21, the obstacles to POW-MIA recovery are too few intelligence analysts and repeated U.S. cancellations of planned recovery operations due to decreased funding. This regrettable situation has sent negative signals of disinterest to counterpart officials in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. I will work to increase funding for POW-MIA recovery.

Susan Good Geise: Honor veterans by strengthening VA, hiring veterans and more

Montana, outside of Alaska, has the highest rate of military service in the nation, and our heroes range from the posthumous Medal of Honor-winner Travis Atkins of Bozeman to, though our politics differ, Robert O'Neil of Butte, who helped hunt down Osama bin Laden, to those like Bud Campbell who survived the Bataan Death March of World War II, the Korean War's Newton Old Crow Sr., and the Vietnam War's Bob Jewell. Veterans Day gives us all a chance to reflect on those who have served our nation in uniform. It has also given me, as a U.S. Senate candidate, the opportunity to develop the policies that will help our veterans: protecting and fortifying the Veterans Administration, destigmatizing and treating war's hidden injuries, including PTSD and TBI, expanding rural Montana's access to high quality health care, incentivizing the hiring and training of veterans, solving veteran homelessness, and tackling our state's suicide epidemic head-on.
