Surviving coming back The editors are so set in the fact they believe that I am a danger any communication about me is stopped unless it can be used as a warning to the danger. I trained and the USMC created a US Marine to fight for the USA. I lost my complete memory prior to my 17 birthdays from a car accident right out of Parris Island boot camp. The MC made a clerical error and instead of a medical discharge I was sent back to active duty. By the time I reached my twenties I had completed eight coveys across enemy territory delivering surplus supplies to friendly post deep in the bush as an American Advisor. I had no memory of round-eyed country (USA) or even what freedom was. I was nearing the end of my thirty-one month tour overseas in and out of combat situations. I had received by this point three combat related injuries that would haunt me for the rest of my life. I entered San Francisco airport to be spit on and call a baby killer. I was so naive that I thanked the girl as I smiled and continued to enter the real world. I to this day have no memory of my child hood or the people in it other than I met my family after returning to NH. I can get any other medical care but NH and the VA have stopped my medical care for combat related disabilities to teach me to obey authority. I want you to remember it is people like Ms Clark running for NH State Senate that has never been to war ignoring and neglecting US Military Veterans just like me. Many of these Veterans are homeless as the politicians say they want to spend more money but money is not what we need. Creating jobs and building expensive fancy buildings is a look good band-aid that does not understand what we are. The share fact editors can use my military disabilities to scare and alienate me because of my disabilities is proof this civilized society has not reached the point to understanding what PTSD/TBI or the other mental and physical disabilities we come back with. I hear the editor of the Fosters is telling other people my purchasing property to build a Veteran Resort-Chapel is a campaign ploy to get votes. I have volunteered almost every day since coming back to help other citizens. The Foster’s a few years ago gave me an award for my volunteer work. Helping Veterans from someone that has been there can do more good by giving homeless veterans a free place to live in the woods of eleven-acres of waterfront property. Small cabins isolated where they can try to come back at their own speed and yet close enough to business and society to give them a way to integrate back when and if they are ever ready. My wife and I spent our life savings and then mortgaged our home to the hilt to buy this property. My running for NH State Senate is a volunteer position to help veterans and the citizens of NH have a better life. The hard part is the editors spread false information but refuse to print the other side to the determent of every US Military Veteran in NH trying to come home to a place you clearly without even knowing it but we receive the hate for what we did. Rod Doherty is a Veteran from what I hear but he to me is a disgrace to the uniform for what he is doing to us. Peter Macdonald Sgt USMC Semper Fi 465 Packers falls Rd Lee NH 03824 603-781-3839
