Quote from Rep Walter Jones, North Carolina, Rep ..."If we're going to call on these soldiers and Marines and their families to keep going on these deployments," he added, "we better be prepared to help them when they come back."

this is the last sentence in an article published by MSNBC. There is another statement in the article that some Psychiatrists forced PTSD sufferers to read Military manuals as treatment because they were evidently cowards and needed more training.

I'm going to check and if he isn't on the co-sponsors list I'll e-mail him and point out a real example of poor treatment!!

Good work Shipmates,
Keep it up.
It may be more inportant than ever before, to keep the flow of information open. It will be up to the Veterans to keep Veterans Issues on top of the stack.
fax's, e-mails and snail mail are the side arm of the veteran.

thanks for what you all do.
