This was excellent! Such a great view into the mind of the suffering soldier. It should NEVER be a poison pill to seek treatment but it is. High crimes against humanity to make these men feel less than and not cared for after all they require of them. Sickens me.
Papa refused to talk about what happened to him in WWII. Over time, he'd begin to share some of the funnier stories, like him diving and hiding behind ammo when they were being shelled and realizing, OH $#!+, where an I hiding again? And when he painted over the toes of an annoying officer's shoes on the deck. But he had good friends at the Elk's Lodge and VFW to talk about the tough stuff, others who knew it because they were there. His story finally ended at age 84, loved by so many family and friends, that they had to move the funeral to a larger venue. You can do this. You can overcome. Papa is proof. God bless you, my beloved veteran! God bless you, my beloved survivor!
