In Japan After Fatal Car Crash Analysis

Men in wars are usually fighting to protect their country or win wars. They cannot escape from the risk of death. Even though they say that they are ready to die to protect their country, they are afraid to die. In Yamato, some soldiers realize that there is more possibility to die than usual fights when Yamato battleship is heading to Okinawa. Thus, they start drinking so much alcohol to take their mind off from their upcoming death. I think they try not to show their fear so much, and they pretend they are fine with it.

Veterans and active duty military personnel face unique problems and special considerations when it comes to the abuse of alcohol. There is a drinking

U.S. veterans and alcohol seem to go hand in hand. Even if a military member was not a user of alcohol prior to service almost all become a user during and after service.

The Car Crash Study was done in 1974 by Loftus and Palmer that was aimed to test their theory that the language used in an eyewitness testimonies can alter the eyewitness’s memory of the event. They got 45 American students and showed them 7 films of traffic accidents, ranging from 5 to 30 seconds, in a random order. Afterwards the subjects were asked to describe what happened as if they were at the accident. They were then asked more specific questions such as, “About how fast were the cars going when they (smashed/ collided/ bumped/ hit/ contacted) each other?’. This was to see if the if the verb used in the question would affect the answers given by the subjects which it did. In the next part of the experiment they showed 150 students a one-minute film that showed a car driving through the country side followed by four seconds of a multiple traffic accident. Afterwards they split the students into three groups and asked them different questions. The first group was asked “How fast were the cars going when they hit each other?”, the second group was asked “How fast were the cars going when they smashed into each other?”, and the third group was kept as a control group and wasn’t asked anything. One week later they were asked, without seeing the film, ten questions about the film. One question asked “Did you see any broken glass? Yes or No?” which there was none. The results showed that more participants who were asked “How fast were the cars going when they smashed?” said

I would respond to many people argument with the fact that when you turn 18 you are given your rights, if you are a male you get draft papers. When you turn 18 you are able to go give your life and serve your country but you cannot consume alcohol. Driving under the influence has lead to many deaths not because people drive drunk but they have not witnessed the consequences. All though you cannot get rid of drinking under the influence completely, you can reduce it by providing a system to take drunkies home.

Getting in a car accident is an unnerving thing. You never know what can happen and if your lucky you might see it coming. Well as often as these accidents occur, it happened to Spencer and I on one fateful summer evening.

An Alaska lawmaker who is a veteran is pushing a bill for active duty service members younger than twenty one to drink alcohol as long as they can produce an armed forces identification card. For some, lowering the drinking age sends a mixed message, for others it’s ok. Some believe any young person whose profession puts their life at risk, such as police or firefighters, could be allowed to drink. Chris Stein, a writer on nola.com quotes Maria Wylie who is a twenty year old Army ROTC cadet at the university of Alaska Fairbanks says “ the meause sounded fair, as long as soldiers of all ages ensure they don’t drink and

Caitlyn Jenner could be charged with vehicular manslaughter as early as next week in connection to a February crash in Malibu, California that killed a woman.

Every day in the United States, almost 30 people die in motor vehicle accidents that are caused by or involve alcohol consumption (Naimi, 71). However, despite the cultural perception that young people and alcohol should not be mixed, there are other institutional forces that perhaps have illuminated the point that people as young as 18 should be allowed to drink and consume alcohol, and that the legal drinking age should be raised. However, simply because the US recognizes people who are 18 years of age as legal adults, and because legal adults are allowed to marry, vote, buy and smoke cigarettes, and register for the armed forces, does not mean that they should also be allowed to consume alcohol as well—as there current evidence that would

This is a topic that was near and dear to my husband’s heart. As he is in the military, it comes up often during mobilizations for deployment. I drink very little, so I hadn’t given it much consideration until he was deploying himself. I think that military personnel under the age of 21 should be allowed to consume alcoholic beverages under supervision.

"A National Transportation Safety Board investigation into the crash, released 11 months later, lays most of the blame for the collision on a local Norfolk Southern crew who were working the line west of Aiken a day earlier. The crew of Train P22 told investigators they were running behind when they reached the Avondale Mills textile plant around 6:10 p.m. the evening of January 5. That did not give them enough time to drop off the cargo of sodium hydroxide (used as a bleaching agent at the Avondale Mills plant) and make the planned trip down to Warrenville without going over their work-hour limit. So after finishing work at the Graniteville plant, the crew took a taxi to a hotel for the night with the intention of returning the following morning. No one noticed that the switch on the main line was still pointed towards the Avondale Mills spur. In fact, the brakeman was insistent that he had moved the switch back so any later trains going through town would still be able to go straight."2 This is a case of pushing the limits to the edge and missing an important detail. The work limits are put into effect to prevent just this kind of over site of missing important details. Unfortunately this one resulted in a major accident with loss of life. When the limits are pushed mistakes are made and the result sounds like; " 'In my mind, when I left [the industry track], everything was properly lined back to the main line. I had no doubts in my mind when I left there, ' the

Alcohol consumption is a major concern of the military. Not only does a service member risky behavior jeopardize their lives, but it can also dramatically impact others. During my tenure at Fort Knox, I had two friends who utilized a risky behavior. Both did not have a drinking problem, but their risky behavior did not allow them to do what was right. My friends decided to remain at Knox on a four day weekend. While relaxing at the house, they decided to have a couple of drinks. One drink led to another and soon they became restless and decided to ride to Louisville for some late night parting in separate cars. Both were completely impaired and could not drive in a safe manner. As they approached the exit gate weaving from lane to lane, they were pulled over by the military police. My friends had made the military police blotter for driving while intoxicated. Their careers were over as they both were well over the blood alcohol concentration limit. Their credibility as an officer was destroyed and they were constantly trying to defend it. Their risky behavior had placed others in jeopardy and could have resulted in a serious car accident. My friends clearly understood what the right thing to do, but their risky behavior made it hard for them to do it. They knew the right thing to do was not to drink and

healthy diet of fish, rice, and vegetables, as well as daily physical activity. Japan’s life expectancy is one of the highest in the world (“Countries: Japan,” 2015, para. 2b). Japan is healthy, but there are still health issues. As formerly one of the 194 countries that was a member of the World Health Organization, now the Japanese population relies on the Western Pacific Region Organizational branch of the World Health Organization for guidance and support when it comes to major health crisis that effect this otherwise healthy country. Some of the main health issues that the Western Pacific Region Organization has addressed to Japan is the issue of heavy alcohol consumption, leading to high-risk ailments such as alcohol-related Oesophageal cancer. The Japanese population is at serious risk of alcoholic related diseases unless they lower their average consumption of alcohol. Through The World Health Organization’s precautions and treatments, Japan will able to prevent the ailments that come with heavy drinking.
