Als sowjetische Truppen am 29. März 1945 bei Klostermarienberg erstmals österreichischen Boden betraten, tauchten sie in eine feindliche, weitestgehend unbekannte und nur schwer verständliche Welt ein, die die östlichen "Befreier vom faschistischen Joch" durchaus nicht mit offenen Armen begrüsste. Angesichts der ersten Begegnungen mit der österreichischen Bevölkerung kamen nun vielfach jene stereotypen Feind- und Fremdbilder zum Tragen, die die sowjetische Propaganda gemeinsam mit den Kriegserfahrungen tief im Unterbewusstsein verankert hatte. Aber auch durch Film und Literatur geprägte Vorstellungen des Westens wurden mit der Realität konfrontiert. Dem für die Rote Armee ruhm- und siegreichen Ende des Zweiten Weltkrieges folgte die zehnjährige Besatzung Österreichs, die hunderttausende sowjetische Soldaten und Offiziere, ihre Frauen und Kinder sowie ziviles Besatzungspersonal für mehrere Monate, aber auch Jahre an Österreich binden sollte. Moskau versuchte (häufig vergeblich), die Truppen zu "hoher politischer Wachsamkeit" zu erziehen, ihre militärische Disziplin zu steigern und den "politisch-moralischen Zustand" zu stärken. Die direkte Konfrontation mit der österreichischen Bevölkerung, aber auch mit westlichen Besatzungsangehörigen barg aus sowjetischer Sicht die Gefahr einer "feindlichen Einflussnahme" in sich. Zweifel an der Überlegenheit des kommunistischen Systems, Regelverstösse sowie Vergehen, die eigentlich "nur" strafrechtlich relevant waren, galten als politisch motiviert und als ein Zeichen der ideologischen und politischen Wankelmütigkeit des Betroffenen. Dies konnte strenge Repressalien bis hin zur Todesstrafe nach sich ziehen. Während die österreichische Sichtweise der Besatzung, der österreichische Alltag in der sowjetischen Besatzungszone oder die wichtigsten Topoi von den Rotarmisten gut dokumentiert und aufgearbeitet sind, stehen Forschungen zu den individuellen Erlebnissen, Eindrücken und Verarbeitungsformen durch die Besatzungssoldaten selbst bisher weitestgehend aus. Im Zentrum der vorliegenden Arbeit stehen die ERFAHRUNG der sowjetischen Lebenswelt in Österreich, die u. a. die Besatzungsorganisation, Disziplin und Strafverfolgung, die tägliche Arbeit, das Alltagsleben in den Kasernen oder die Freizeitgestaltung einschliesst; die WAHRNEHMUNG im Spiegel schriftlicher und mündlicher Zeugnisse, und die institutionalisierte wie private ERINNERUNG in der ehemaligen Sowjetunion. Einleitend werden im Rahmen der Makroebene Struktur und Funktion des sowjetischen Besatzungsapparates sowie die historischen Rahmenbedingungen geschildert. Diese akribische Spurensuche soll nicht zuletzt für die Frage nach der Wahrnehmung des Fremden und der Herausbildung spezifischer Topoi neue Einsichten eröffnen.

In the past decade, U.S. military families have experienced extreme stress, as U.S. soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines have experienced extended and repeated deployments. As a result, U.S. policymakers and Department of Defense leadership have placed an emphasis on family readiness for deployment and other military-related stressors. However, family readiness is not a well-understood construct. The Deployment Life Study was designed to provide a deeper understanding of family readiness and to address the sources of readiness among military families. It is a longitudinal study of military families over the course of a full deployment cycle--predeployment, during deployment, and postdeployment. Over the course of three years, the study will follow 2,724 families from each service and component, interviewing service members, their spouses, and one child between the ages of 11 and 17 in each family (if applicable) every four months. Baseline data are weighted to be representative of married service members who were eligible to deploy sometime between June 1, 2012, and December 31, 2012. This report describes the Deployment Life Study theoretical model; the content of the baseline assessment; the design and procedures associated with data collection, sampling and recruiting procedures; and the baseline sample of military families.

"On April 28, 1946, a small group of American wives and children arrived at the port of Bremerhaven, West Germany, the first of thousands of military family members to make the trans-Atlantic journey. Drawing on archival sources and personal narratives, this book explores these enclaves of Americanism, from the U.S. government's perspective to the grassroots view of those who made their homes in Cold War Europe. These families faced challenges in balancing their military missions with daily lives during a period of dynamic global change."--Provided by publisher.

The book shows how the "Armyville" school district was unprepared to offer an effective response in support of its students."--
