The increased deployment of service members beginning in 2001 as a result of Operations Enduring and Iraqi Freedom has raised difficult military child custody issues that in some cases potentially affect the welfare of military children as well as servicemembers' ability to effectively serve their country. Approximately 142,000 members of the Armed Forces (active, Guard, and Reserve) are single custodians of minor children. Temporary duty assignments, mobilization, and deployments to areas that do not allow the military member's dependent(s) to accompany them require the servicemember to have

"Scars of War examines the decisions of U.S. policymakers denying the Amerasians of Vietnam-the biracial sons and daughters of American fathers and Vietnamese mothers born during the Vietnam War-American citizenship. Focusing on the implications of the 1982 Amerasian Immigration Act and the 1987 Amerasian Homecoming Act, Sabrina Thomas investigates why policymakers deemed a population unfit for American citizenship, despite the fact that they had American fathers. Thomas argues that the exclusion of citizenship was a component of bigger issues confronting the Nixon, Ford, Carter, and Reagan administrations: international relationships in a Cold War era, America's defeat in the Vietnam War, and a history in the United States of racially restrictive immigration and citizenship policies against mixed-race persons and people of Asian descent. Now more politically relevant than ever, Scars of War explores ideas of race, nation, and gender in the aftermath of the Vietnam War. Thomas exposes the contradictory approach of policymakers unable to reconcile Amerasian biracialism with the U.S. Code. As they created an inclusionary discourse deeming Amerasians worthy of American action, guidance, and humanitarian aid, federal policymakers simultaneously initiated exclusionary policies that designated these people unfit for American citizenship. "-- "Scars of War examines how the exclusion of mixed-race persons and people of Asian descent in the United States shaped the efforts of policymakers to recognize the Amerasians of Vietnam as American children and initiate legislation that designated them unfit for American citizenship"--

"It examines the adolescents who attended the pseudonymous "Armyville High School" between 2006 and 2010 and how they were affected by their parents' involvement in the Canadian military mission in Afghanistan. The book shows how the "Armyville" school district was unprepared to offer an effective response in support of its students."--
