OK, got it.

I always think of Ernie Pyle or Matthew Brady when this subject comes up.

I did hear of it... This is very useful and is long overdue. These combat vets need exceptional treatment because they have seen, and done, some exceptional things and this needed to be recognised. Traumatic stress has different effects on different people, but all but a very few ARE affected to a greater or a lesser degree, and the effects of that stay with them for life. The justice system needed to be aware of that, and some enlightened soul has made it happen....

BRAVO!

My apologies, Billy. I leapt to an interpretation

Upon further reflection, it is I who owe you and others like you an apology. You had every right to be upset. I can definatly see why my ignorant statment would upset you. I never should have phrased it that way. I would say, "Had I known", but that doesn't matter. I should have never said it like that to begin with. I didn't mean it that way but that is still no excuse. My deepest humble and heart felt apology to you and others like you who served. :bow:


I should refrian from my armchair quarterback comments upon events that cost people their lives that I know nothing of, that happened before a was born. :wall:

Doc, I am truly truly sorry. You have every right to be upset. PLease forgive my ignorance insensitive self.
