    AbstractPsychologists have a long and respected history of service during wartime that dates back to World War I. From the early days of scientific personnel selection, clinical psychologists have made a number of wartime contributions. Today, Army clinical psychologists serving in Iraq are providing behavioral health services as both clinicians and prevention specialists in order to meet the psychological and emotional needs of service members abroad. They are also performing as Army officers and soldiers contributing to the success of military operations as a whole. The authors, two clinical psychologists and Army officers currently deployed to Iraq, provide a small glimpse into the clinical and personal opportunities and challenges faced by wartime Army clinical psychologists.Copyright (c) 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
