craig, there is sooo much help out there for "us" serving personnel and just as much for those that have got out the forces, but i know exactly how hard it is to open up and speak to anyone, ive been there in that dark place when returned from afghan. i have it all to look forward to again.

leigh, thanks, it is very sad but the ammount off support really does help
