No blocking method discontinuity is identified inside the selected cycle span, but one or more longitudinal changes require explicit harmonization conditions before pooling.

Praxis harmonization actions
- Apply cycle-specific eligibility rules and restrict the pooled analytic population to a defensible common target population.
- Verify merge grain, companion variables, and component-specific analytic guidance for the new file context.
- Confirm that the construct and coding are unchanged before pooling or recoding.

No normalized longitudinal change evidence is available for this variable. Absence of events must not be interpreted as proof of cross-cycle equivalence.

Did {you/SP} ever serve in a foreign country during a time of armed conflict or on a humanitarian or peace-keeping mission? (This would include National Guard or reserve or active duty monitoring or conducting peace keeping operations in Bosnia and Kosovo, in the Sinai between Egypt and Israel, or in response to the 2004 tsunami or Haiti in 2010.)

Praxis harmonization actions
- Verify merge grain, companion variables, and component-specific analytic guidance for the new file context.
- Select the weight appropriate to each cycle and subsample; when pooling cycles, construct the combined weight according to NHANES guidance rather than reusing a single-cycle weight unchanged.
- Confirm that the construct and coding are unchanged before pooling or recoding.
