Lt. Cmdr. Gerald Schmuker, the operational stress control and readiness counselor with Regimental Combat Team 2, speaks to the command of 1st Battalion, 8th Marines, Regimental Combat Team 2, during a class on combat operational stress control in Musa Qal’eh, Jan. 19. Combat operational stress control teaches what stressors can occur during deployments, what Marines can do to deal with those stressors, and what the Marine leadership can do to support their Marines. “Without help or someone to talk to, small issues can grow into much more serious and long-term issues such as post traumatic stress disorder,” said Schmuker. “So it’s very important that the Marines know who they can talk to, where they can go for help and that their leadership is there to support them.”
