Not everyone makes a good transition when they get back home. In his day, PTSD wasn't even talked about at the VA. There was little/no support for returning veterans, so most had to handle it themselves. Self medicating with what ever they could. Developed some bad habits & dependencies. There are lots of homeless veterans out there. I've got nothing but love for this guy, he's not hurting anyone but himself.......
Please agree to disgree, with me on this. People come back from WAR with all kinds of problems. They each deal with it in their on way . I truly think you are a very cool person . Lets just let this go away. Thank you
I'll try to wade in here Double JJ
I agree with hemlock.....IMHO the ability reassess & make appropriate change, is a major personality strength, or weakness in many. Thank you Neitz....
Clayton this is none of my business but I can tell you why. Because the peace movement, at that time, blamed the soldiers. If you want to hear it explained it's pretty well laid out in Buffy St. Marie's Universal Soldier. That sort of encapsulates it. It was a case of blaming the victims.
Lol, thanks.
This one's for you SB......[video=youtube;14qTdp-Dd30]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14qTdp-Dd30&feature=player_embedded[/video]
LOL too funny! Good one. I've added it to the player
You know I've been pounding my rage into the asphalt listening to these guys. It helps to hit the bed so tired your brain has stopped. So many people forget America is what we make of it. It is a melting pot. You don't sell out, you buy in. So many people want the benefits without the purchase price.
