Military deployment is associated with increased risk of mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Combat stress related memory deficits has been well documented. Mild cognitive impairment such as memory deficits are the most common and earliest symptoms of Alzheimer's disease and related dementia (ADRD). The complaints about declined memory are common in healthy and cognitively intact civilian older adults, but less understood in aging Veterans. Brain training strategies to enhance cognitive skills and especially memory processes are unmet needs in aging Veterans who are at additional risk for MCI induced by ADRD. Since currently there is no effective drug treatment to stop cognitive decline, non-invasive brain training to boost memory functions in older Veterans is an increasingly attractive option to attenuating decline in memory.
