From the New York Times, I'm Zolan Kano Youngs, filling in as host.
This is the Daily.
Over the past decade, the U.S.
military experienced a wake-up call.
Research showed that traumatic brain injuries were not just caused by bombings and explosions.
But also by the shockwaves troops feel from their own weapons, like artillery and shoulder-fired rockets.
Now, new reporting shows that similarly devastating impacts can come from another unexpected place.
The ocean.
Today, my colleague Dave Phillips on a significant blind spot in the Coast Guard.
And the teenager who helped expose how widespread the danger really is.
It's Tuesday, September 1st.
Dave Phillips, you have been covering the military for how long?
Probably like 20 years.
And I think it's fair to say that you have expanded our understanding of specifically brain injuries in the military and how they can impact a wide range of jobs.
But recently your reporting took you to a branch of the military that I think most of us would not associate with head trauma, and that's the Coast Guard.
How'd you end up there?
Right.
So you're describing heavy weapons, working with explosives, you're describing combat.
And I don't usually associate all of those things with the Coast Guard.
So I guess were you surprised that your journey brought you here to the Coast Guard?
