Last Resort
The Veteran Resort-Chapel what a thought to give returning US Military Veterans a place to live or vacation free of charge to attempt to come home mentally as well as physically. A chance for the people of NH to let these men and women that have been to places that you cannot conceive what we have done have a chance to see the other side. Every day I read articles how VFW, AL, and other town and community groups want to do for these veterans but barely scratch the surface of helping them come back. Most if not all VA doctors have never had a rifle and fought in combat to kill or be killed. Most if not all have never lived so close to the enemy that the freckles on their faces were as clear as a silver dollar as they passed. One must concede it is hard if not impossible for treatment to begin: administered by someone that has no idea other than hearing from those that have. The VA and NH government have stopped my medical care for just such combat related disabilities until I stop writing opinion letters of government wrongs. The news media goes so far as to keep the voters ignorant of the facts to prevent any votes for my candidacy for NH State Senate District 21.
My solution as I entered this world “USA” again was to volunteer as my PTSD and TBI took whatever memory of the U.S. that I had. I try to volunteer every day to stop the guilt of coming back alive when so many better than I did not. I broke my back during one Vietnam Offensive and lost most of my hearing during many other skirmishes. To allow the newspapers to censor the words of a US Military Veteran not only running for NH State Senate District 21 but also stopping the public from being made aware of the Veteran Resort-Chapel. I have done many social and political things wrongs as I try to understand a civilized society that there is no way that I belong. I have been there and I know in my own way how those homeless and rejected U.S. Military Veterans perceive what coming home meant and now means. To see the other side to me is the most important part of being a U.S. citizen and will always be the solution to solving problems.
Suicide is the closest thing to being where I belong that it just makes more and more since. I am a U. S. Marine and my duty is to protect and defend our Constitution at all cost. The homeless U.S. Military Veterans and all those coming back mentally and physically needing a chance it is a U.S. Marines duty. You do not have to like me that is the consequences of being a Sgt in the USMC. No one likes the Sgt. but to censor the opinion letters of any U.S. citizens cannot be tolerated. To use the Combat related disabilities to harm the character of a US Marine and the consequences being harming many NH U.S. Military Veterans coming home is just plain wrong. Silence my words but my spirit will always be with the USA>
