Thank You
Quote From: wvsheilaMy father is a disabled Vet from Vietnam, He was in the heavy stuff over there for the united states Marine corp. He had skin cancer, heart disease, diabetes (all agent orange related) and he has severe PTSD!!
The ONLY way he finally got the help and relief he earned 1000% over and over was by my ENTIRE family, aunts, uncles, sisters, mom and me hounding our STATE SENATORS REPEATEDLY!! It can feel very hopeless at times. But the soldiers put their butts on the line for our Country with honor and dignity. They deserve to be taken care of and rewarded WITH HONOR AND DIGNITY and shouldn't be made to feel like charity cases or 2nd class citizens.
In my mind soldiers of ANY branch of the military of our great USA is a super hero and due the utmost dignity and respect, but most importantly, EVERY BENEFIT THEY CAN GET WITHOUT FEELING LIKE A BEGGAR!!! It's so disgusting to see the abuse of the very men and women who fight for our freedom and way of life!! GOD BLESS THE USA AND EVERY VETERAN AND TROOP!!!! I have 2 sons that served in Iraq. My oldest has PTSD and in the process of being diagnosised with Brain Trauma Injury (BTI). My other son may have PTSD. I just wanted to say thank you for the tip, of everyone repeatedly writing our senators. I am going to give the information to everyone in our family to start writing!
