This legislation mandates that the Secretary of Defense submit a comprehensive report to Congress within 180 days of its enactment. The primary purpose of this report is to present a study determining the prevalence and extent of traumatic brain injuries among active-duty pilots. The study will specifically investigate TBIs resulting from the cumulative effects of high-speed maneuvers, catapult launches, and other repetitive actions inherent to their service. Furthermore, the report must detail the Department of Defense's current policies for identifying, documenting, and treating mild, moderate, and severe TBIs in pilots. It will also include a strategy to enhance these processes and provide recommendations for potential regulatory and legislative actions to address challenges in managing pilot brain health.
