denied employment bc im a vet who has ptsd

It's your medical information, not theirs... demand to see it and contact your VA or VFW... they have ways to assist you.

By the way, thank you for your service and welcome home Bro from a combat (Viet Nam era) Hospital Corpsman.

I've been driving for over 20 years and MOST of the drivers I listen to HAVE CTSD (Current Traumatic Stress Disorder) just from dealing with surrounding four-wheelers and wannabee drivers.

 

Here is the skivvy fellow Vets, they cannot by law give you the big green one, now it does happen but hey you did not make it home alive by giving up now did we?

Yes I am a combat Vet and will die like a man on my feet than beaten like a dog on my knees.

More information, I am one the road and hard to log in sometimes.

Google veteran ptsd discrimination and read some, it is enlightening.

 

i think its ########.you are good enough to put you're life on the line for this country.then when you need help they give you a swift kick in the ###.doesnt people stop to think if it wasn't for all the of you vets this country wouldn't be free.and we might not be here.THANK YOU FOR KEEPING US SAFE.

 

I know and it sucks

 

Florida Tank and Rock to your south is always looking......

 

Okay I guess you're not understanding really what I meant by that. Pretty much to break it down into layman terms people go to the va cleanin ptsd when they were never in a combat environment or never suffered a tramatic experience while overseas serving. All there looking for is a free handout and they fined ptsd as an easy way to get it.

 

why should it matter if they got ptsd,they fought for this country so yeah the government should give them whatever they want.

 

I can't say I do. My younger brother who is also a machine gunner in the marine corps has hit over a dozen ieds been injured by 3 of them and knows over 4 dozen people that have either been killed or injured in combat. That's the only other person in my generation of my family that serve in the military
