Msodzi Wachilendo
Nkhani yanga ndi yofanana ndi ya Doug. Kumayambiriro kwa zaka za makumi asanu ndi awiri, ine ndinali mu Marine Corps. Ndinazindikira kuti ndinali ndi vuto kumva zinthu, monga wailesi, TV, kukambilana m'chipinda chodzaza.
Nthawi zonse ndimati "hu," ngati sindinayang'ane munthu amene akulankhula. Zonse zomwe ndingamve zinali kutayika.
Pamene ndinakopeka, kumva kwanga kunali kosavuta, tsopano chinachake chinali chosiyana. Ndakhala ndikupita ku mfuti ndikuvala chitetezo chakumvetsera. Komabe, tinakwera ma helikopta zambiri popanda kutetezedwa. Ndikuwona kuti kumva kwanga kunali kovuta mutatha kukwera.
Kumvetsera KumayesedwaNdinapita kuchipatala cha m'munsi ndipo ndinapatsidwa mawu. Ndinapita kukayezetsa ndemanga ndi dokotala. Anandiuza kuti ndakhala ndikumva zomveka bwino m'makutu onse awiri. Kenaka anatulutsa foloko yapamwamba yomwe inali yaikulu ngati yanga ndipo anaigunda pa desiki. Ndikuziyika patsogolo pa nkhope yanga iye anati "Kodi mungamve zimenezo?" Ndinayankha "inde" ndipo adati ndine woyenera ntchito ndipo ananditumizira.
Mayesero akumva AtalepheraPachiyambi changa choyang'ananso ine ndatsala pang'ono kuti ndisadutse audiogram yanga. Namwino adanena kuti adzayang'ana kuti ndiwone ngati ndikufunika kuchotsa kumva kwa dokotala wanga. Anabwerera ndipo anati ndine oyenera koma mwina sindikanapitiriza kubwezeretsa. Zoonadi sindinatero, choncho ndinapempha zaumphawi ndipo ndinauzidwa kuti ndi 100% yokonzeka kumva koma ndikuloledwa kupita ku bwalo la mankhwala la Navy kuti ndikadandaule mlandu wanga. Zingatenge miyezi sikisi kapena eyiti kupitila ETS yanga, kotero ndimangozisiya.
Kumva Kutayika WorsensNditangomva zaka zingapo ndikupita ku VA, ndinkamvanso ntchito yambiri. Zinatenga miyezi itatu kuti ndiyambe kusankhidwa, kenako masabata asanu ndi limodzi mpaka nditalemba ndemanga. Pambuyo pa msonkhanowu kunatenga miyezi isanu ndi umodzi kuti mubwerere kuchokera kwa iwo kuti apange msonkhano ndi dokotala wa khutu.
Ntchito yoyamba yomwe ndikanatha kupanga inali miyezi itatu. Ndinadikirira maola asanu ndi limodzi. Ndinaonana ndi dokotala ndipo adandiyesa ine ndikumuuza kuti ndikhoza "kusokoneza maganizo" ndikudandaula ndikudandaula ndikukhoza kuwonongeka "tinnitus" kapena "cochlear".
Palibe Kupatsidwa ThandizoIye adafunsa "Kodi ndikanayembekezera kuti iwo andichitire chiyani?".
Ndinati mwina ndingapeze zinthu zothandizira kumva kapena chinachake? Anati iwo samachita izo ndipo ananditumiza ine panjira yanga.
Vietnam Wachiwembu
Ndinatulutsidwa ku USMC mu 1969. Ndatumikira miyezi 8 ku Vietnam ndi kampani ya mfuti. Ndili 40% wodwala wodwala wodwalayo chifukwa cha zilonda zam'magazi zomwe zinandivulaza mu 1968. Nditangomaliza ntchitoyi panali miyezi isanu ndi itatu ndikuvulaza. M'zaka za m'ma 70, ndamva kumva kuti ndikuyesedwa ndi kampani imene ndimagwira ntchito. Mayesowa anandionetsa kuti ndinali ndi vuto lokumva bwino.
Panthawi imeneyo sindinaganize kuti linali vuto. Kumva kwanga kunayamba kuwonjezereka. Ndinapita kwa dokotala wachilendo ndipo ndinamva kuti makutu anga anayesedwa.
Zotsatira zake zinali ndi 60 peresenti yakumva kumva m'makutu onse awiri. Dokotala anandilangizanso kuti ndili ndi ziphuphu zoopsa komanso mitsempha ya m'mitsempha yonse.
A VA anayezetsa mofanana ndi zotsatira zomwezo, ndipo anandipatsa ine zothandizira kumva kwa makutu onse awiri. Chifukwa palibe chomwe chikufotokozera vuto lakumva liri mu zolemba zanga za utumiki, VA akutsatira mfundo zomwe sizili zokhudzana ndi ntchito, ngakhale madokotala awo akuwona kuti ndizo.
Kodi pali wina aliyense amene anakumana ndi vuto ili? Kodi zinakhazikitsidwa bwanji? Kodi pali wina yemwe ali ndi lingaliro, kupatulapo kuiwala?
Wachinyamata wina wa ku Vietnam
Ndikumva zovuta chifukwa cha utumiki wa usilikali. Kumva kwanga kunabwera kuchokera ku zida zowomba ku Vietnam. Ndinalandira kulemala kwa 10 peresenti kuchokera kwa VA koma zinatenga zaka 18, ndipo potsiriza ndinalandira thandizo lothandizira kudzera mwa VA pambuyo pa zaka 20 zokangana nawo.Ndamva kuti Mickey Mouse amamvetsera makutu omwe asilikali omwe amagwiritsidwa ntchito povala maulendo oyendetsa ndege ndi maulendo oyendetsa ndege, anali osagwiritsidwa ntchito pang'ono. Ndikunena za nyengo isanayambe 1983, pamene malamulo omasunga akumva akupezeka. Ndimakumbukira iwo ngati akuwoneka ngati makutu a khutu ndipo ndikukhala ndi msuzi wamtundu wopita pamwamba pa mutu wanu. Izi sizinaperekedwe kwa aliyense.
Posachedwa Kutaya
Ndinangopuma pantchito miyezi ingapo yapitayo ndi zaka 20 m'ndende. Panthawi imeneyo, ndinali ndi maulendo (ndege) komanso zida (M1 tank series). M'masiku anga oyambirira, ndinakhala mfuti yam'madzi (kuyesera kupha masentimita 7.62 mm kuchokera pamutu mwanu mu mphindi zochepa) ndipo ndimatha kukumbukira kutaya kumva kwanga kwa masiku asanu ngakhale kuti ndinkamvetsera .
Mndandanda wanga wa lamulo unkadziwa za panthawiyo koma sanachite kanthu. Pambuyo pake, sindidaganiza kanthu.
Ndinalinso grenadier, ndi mfuti ... pogwiritsira ntchito zida zonse zomwe ana athu aamuna amapezeka.
Ndinawerengeka nthawi zomwe ndimamva zinkakhala zoipa kapena zinkatayika kanthawi pamene ndikuwombera. Ndinayamba kuchita mantha kwambiri ndipo ndinkakhala ndi chitetezo chakumvetsera. Koma nthawi zina, chitetezero chakumvetsera sichoncho - chitsanzo ndi oyendetsa - pamene mukufunikira makutu anu - ndikudzidzimutsa ndikuchitapo kanthu.
Mabanki ali ndi Bobo BOOM yawo ndi injini ya injini ndi zina zambiri. Posachedwapa, nditatsala pang'ono kumaliza utumiki wotsatsa, iwo adalemba zambiri zakumvetsera koma sanachitenso kanthu. Ndikuwona VA tsopano ponena za izo.
Ine ndikuwona kuti ndiribe kanthu koti ndisataye.
Kulimbana ndi zida zankhondo ndizovulaza kumva (pakati pa zinthu zina). Ine ndiribe kudana kwa ankhondo. Koma ndikutha kunena kuti palibe chitetezo chakumva chomwe chidzateteze kuopsa kwakumvetsera ku usilikali. Bambo anga ndi WW2 amene anasiya kumva m'makutu amodzi chifukwa cha kuphulika. Ndi gawo la ntchitoyi.
Nkhondo Yachiwiri Yadziko Lonse
Anali mu WW2 ndipo analandira vuto lakumva m'matenda apamwamba chifukwa cha kuwombera mfuti. Ukhondo wina wa New Mexico unathamangitsa nsanja ina usiku umodzi ndipo gulu lonselo linamvetserapo kwa milungu ingapo. Pa nkhondo yomweyo ndinalandira phokoso lina la phokoso la 50 cal. machinegun.Pambuyo pake kumvetsera kunabwerera kumlingo wina koma mu 1950 dokotala wovomerezeka anandiyang'anira ndikuonetsetsa kuti ndataya. Ndinauzidwa kuti pang'onopang'ono zidzakhala zovuta kwambiri. Ndinauzidwa dzina la mtundu wotayika umene unakhudzana ndi phokoso lalikulu monga kampeni yamoto koma kuyambira kale.
