I joined the service in Jan. 3RD 2006 to protect our freedoms and provide a better life for my family. I recieved orders toward the end of 06 after being placed in my unit, Aco 168 BSB. The original orders were for 12 month tour but the next week they were void and we were issued new orders for a 15month deployment as part of the "Surge", in 2007. I went over believing the lies of our goverment and of my commanders and senior staff. Now that I'm back I suffer from PTSD, anxiety, deppression, adujsment disorders, a bad knee, migranes, ect.. I have been unemployed now for 12 months due to the medication I take. I want to be a part of something good and be around like minded individuals like my self. Thank you for all you do and God Bless America.
