Some don't die on the battlefield. This link is about a close friend of mine who lost a battle with PTSD. I watched this guy struggle for help with his chain of command for two years. After he was discharged, he went into a full on flashback, and started shooting up his town. One of the cops who shot him was a friend of his. He left behind his wife and two young kids.

Amen, Choctaw.

I usually try to get to Arlington Cemetery and the Viet Nam Wall on Memorial Day. May all the men and women, from The Revolution to this day, who gave their lives to protect our great freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution and those fanciful ones like posting on boards such as this one Rest In Peace.
