Here we go Military mental health may skip some soldiers

[Monkeyman]

Boise Idaho--- It's been nearly a year since Idaho Nation Guard soldiers retiurned from Iraq, but only about a quarter have had in-depth mental assessments meaning many could be suffering from anger,anxiety and other lingering stresses related to spending months in combat.

I posted about the new study that claim PTSD is not that bad ya right

Ok replugs tell me why as a combat vet why kids are killing themself's when they come home or commiting death by cop. Or why they been arrested for anger problems.

People I can tell you the PTSD is very real and it takes years to be treated where a vet can respect themselfs again. Remember all our young lifes we are taught not to kill. In Combat you do plus see things no human should ever see. Bush and Company do not want to take responsibility for these kids at all. Only five cases of 100% have been granted so far. But we know for a fact that one out of four combat vets coming home suffer PTSD and one in ten brain injury. So why would the cut and ran replugs cut both programs. Not to admit they broke our kids minds and bodies.


Ok you vcan read some of the stories at

1. PTSD

They wan to cut out PTSD benefits for veterans so they're using the "it's not that bad "argument. The campaign has already started. The letters have been sent. They're trying to balance the budget on the back of vets during a war. Pro-military my behind. John Kerry and other Dem vets have addressed this. They're trying to get a bill through to stop this. The GOP does not want this to become an issue. How do I know? No link. I have a letter. Kinda kills the whole "support the troops" meme doesn't it?

2. Honest men and women would never fuck over vets IMO.

Bad idea, guess what happens to soldiers when they ETS? They become vets and are no longer needed or wanted by Rummy/Bush/Cheney. If only people cared about our military.
