Even after that, it took a couple of years and lots of effort to finally get him some treatment and benefits...the guy can't hold down any sort of real job...he's often preoccupied with the "thousand yard stare".

I've started a number of these sorts of threads on a number of different forums...they tend to not get much attention yet so many claim to "support our troops"...what a bunch of fucking bullshit!!!
