Kwiminyaka embalwa ezayo, idabi lokuphelisa ukungabi namakhaya phakathi kwamagqala emfazwe ekugqibeleni linokuphumelela. Amanani anqabile ukusuka ngaphezulu kwama-75,000 ngo-2010 ukuya ngaphantsi kwama-50 000 namhlanje , kwaye oosodolophu abangaphezu kwama-300 bathembise ukusoyisa esi sibetho ngokuphela kowama-2015. Yenye yeendawo ezimbalwa zesivumelwano phakathi kukaMongameli neCongress. Amashumi amaninzi ekungenzi nzuzo akhona ukulwa le ngxaki, kwaye kubemi bemihla ngemihla kukho i-24A ye-hotline ye-VA yomnxeba kwabo bafuna ukunceda.
Impumelelo yalo mzamo ize ngendleko zokuziphatha, nangona kunjalo. Njengokuba inani lezilwanyana ezitalatweni liwile, uluntu lubona amagqala jikelele njengabasesichengeni sokungabi namakhaya. Inxalenye yesizathu kukuba iyabonakala. Eminye imiba ichaphazela ii-vets kumanani amakhulu kakhulu, kodwa abo balele phantsi kweebhulorho sisikhumbuzo esingenakuphepheka sokuba inkqubo yethu isilele kwezinye iindawo. ELos Angeles, apho ndihlala khona, ndihlala ndibona abantu abangenamakhaya bema kwiziphambuka nakwiindawo zokupaka. Ukujonga iimpawu zekhadibhodi abaziphetheyo, uninzi lubonakala ngathi ngamagqala.
Ndenza iinzame zokuthetha nabo, ngesiqhelo incoko ekhawulezileyo ngefestile yemoto evulekileyo, ndilinde ukukhanya kutshintshe. Ngamanye amaxesha, ndiyacela ukuthenga ukutya. Kwiiveki ezimbalwa ezidlulileyo ndabelana ngengxowa yeefry nendoda engenakhaya egama linguEddie. Ubambe ingqalelo yam xa ebuza, Mnumzana, ngaba ungalugcina utshintsho kumlindi? Ndidinga ukukhwela ibhasi ebuyela e-VA. Isibheno sikaEddie yayiyinto eyahlukileyo kwinto eqhelekileyo - ugqirha wezilwanyana onzima ondinga uncedo oluncinci. Ndiphendule nje ngesiqhelo. Andizukunika imali, kodwa ukuba ulambile ndiza kukufumanela into yokutya. Mna noEddie saya kuhlala kwizitulo zamaplanga ngaphandle kwabaFundi abahlanu.
Kubonakala ukuba uEddie wayengekho emkhosini. Nangona ndandingena mceli mngeni kwibali lakhe, wayengenantloni zokuza kucoca. Ngapha koko, uEddie wayezidla ngempumelelo yakhe yokufumana abantu angabaziyo ukuba bahlukane nemali yabo. Ndidibene nabanye abafana naye. Andiyithandi indlela yabo yokuphatha ngaphandle - ubomi babo bunzima kunam kwaye nabani na ongenalwazi ngokwaneleyo ukuba angawela iqhinga unokuyihlangula imali. Kodwa xa kusasazwa imithombo yeendaba, ndiyayikhetha.
Ukubuza ubugorha bomntu ongenakhaya bube yinto engaqhelekanga. Kwisehlo esathathwa kwikhamera ngoJanuwari, uNobhala we-VA uBob McDonald wadibana nendoda engenakhaya owathi wayekhonza kwi-Special Forces. Unobhala, kwinto awathi kamva yayililinge lokunxibelelana ngokwasemphefumlweni nale ndoda, wathi naye wayekuMkhosi oKhethekileyo (waphumelela kwisikolo iRanger, kodwa akakhange asebenze kwicandelo le-SF).
I-frenzy yeendaba elandelayo yajolisa ngokupheleleyo kwihaba likaNobhala oneenjongo ezintle. Abanye oochwephesha, njengoJon Stewart, bazamile ukuhambisa ingqalelo kwinto ababeziva ngathi sisikrelemnqa esikhulu, sokuba igqala lomkhosi okhethekileyo lalingenakhaya. Akukho mntu wacinga ukuphanda ibango elixhokonxe ihlazo- lokuba lo mntu usebenze iyunifomu, ubuncinci kwiyunithi ye-elite. Amaziko osasazo onke, kwaye phantse wonke umbutho wenkonzo yamagqala, uthathe loo nto ngexabiso lokujonga ngelixa ebamba uNobhala weMicimbi yamaGqala.
Inyani yile yokuba bambalwa kunabantu abalishumi abangenamakhaya zii-vets, ke ithuba lokuhlangana elinye liphantsi ngokufanelekileyo. Okwangoku kuphononongo lwamva nje , phantse isiqingatha sabemi baseMelika, xa baboniswe ngomfanekiso wendoda engenakhaya enxibe iimpahla zaseburhulumenteni, bathi inokuba ligqala. Le mfesane yokuguqa ngamadolo, eyandiswe yimithombo yeendaba engagxekiyo, ineziphumo zokwenyani kwindlela amaMelika abajonga ngayo amagqala.
Abanye bafuna uncedo, kwaye abaninzi kakhulu abanamakhaya. Kodwa xa zizonke, ii-vets kunokwenzeka ukuba ziqeshwe, ukuba zivolontiye, zibandakanyeke kumaqela ezentlalo kwaye zizalise indima yobunkokeli kwimibutho yoluntu. Bavota e amazinga aphezulu kakhulu kunabo bangengomagqala. [4] Kwaye eminye yemizamo esebenzayo yokufumana i-vets ezisele ezingama-49,000 ezitalatweni, ezinje ngomsebenzi wobuvulindlela we Inqaku: 2016 intshukumo, ikhokelwa ngamanye amagqala.
Akukho mntu kufanele ukuba aphile phantsi kwebhulorho okanye ngaphezulu kwendlela yangaphantsi. Kwamagqala, kungaphezulu komgaqo-nkqubo olungileyo wentlalo ukufikelela kwizindlu. Sinetyala kubo. Ke ukuthandabuza ukucela umngeni kumntu ongenakhaya ibango lakhe lokuba ngugqirha wezilwanyana kuyaqondakala. Inxalenye yayo kukuziphatha okulula kwabantu, umnqweno wokungafaki isithuko ekwenzakaleni. Kodwa inxenye kukukhetha okungalunganga, okondla iingcamango eziphosakeleyo malunga namagqala kwaye unamandla okwenza umonakalo ongapheliyo.
Akukho gqirha ndiyamazi ocinga ukuba olu luvelwano luguqulayo luyinto esempilweni. Isingela phantsi uninzi lwethu olungamalungu emveliso yoluntu lwethu. Ndihleli ebhentshini noEddie, ndimxelele ukuba ndisebenza emkhosini. Uye wancuma kakhulu wandixhawula, wathi uzukile ngokutya kunye nam. Ukuba kuphela umndilili waseMelika ubonakalise olo hlobo lokunyaniseka.
UKen Harbaugh wayengumqhubi wenqwelomoya wangaphambili. Wayesebenza njengomphathi-mkhosi womkhosi kwaye wafundisa ngembali yomkhosi wamanzi kwiCitadel. Ukulandela inkonzo yakhe yasemkhosini, uMnu Harbaugh waseka Umsebenzi uyaqhubeka , engenzi nzuzo exhobisa amagqala ukuba asebenze kwiindawo abahlala kuzo.
