Help For Veterans
I was hoping to bring to your attention a site run by a vet of Operation Iraqi Freedom designed to help other vets;
On June 14 2005, my life was forever changed. I saw the IED, I tasted the gun powder. No one is sure if I jumped or if I was blown from the HETT that I was riding in. Doesn’t matter I guess. When I landed though, it was hard enough to crack both my clavicle and scapula bones, dislocate my shoulder along with breaking my hip all on the left side. I also broke 4 out of 5 bones in my foot. Did I mention that I was on fire.
I hold my head high because I am proud to be an American Soldier. My kids are proud of me and most of all, my wife is proud of me. Not matter what I saw, what I did, or what happened to me, I was an American Soldier on a mission to protect the freedom of those who need it!
These are a few excerpts from the site. If you want to read about a hero, head on over and read his story. He has already given plenty and now here he is giving more to help his fellow brothers and sisters in arms find their way and help them find answers to all of those questions they may have after they are discharged. Here is part of his mission statement;
GENERAL MISSION My mission with FOR THE VETERAN…BY A VETERAN is to help you find the answers to the questions you where left with when you where medically discharged/retired. The whole process of being injured, going through recovery and trying to readjust to home is stressful enough. To have questions or to run in to a situation you’re not sure where to get the answers just adds to that stress. I have built and continue to add resources to help you and you’re family ease that some of the stress.
Head on over and support the guy. What he is trying to do is great and the guys and gals that serve the USA deserve it. If you have a blog, spread the word about his work.
