PAWS OF WAR - Help a Vet * Save a Pet
Thank u for ur service but I think we’re all going to be closer to Asian cultures of living with our parents war or no war
Scars of war are horrible....
be smart - don't trust the state
War sucks 😢
Sir on behalf of my family and I, I’d like to thank you and you’re miraculous “bro-merang” for your services 🫡🇺🇸 My uncle recently visited Japan and the elders still talk highly of your beautiful lip foliage. Respect sir 💚
As a german i have to admit, it disgusts me how badly the US is treating their veterans healthwise. Massive respect to all those that still want to serve their country. God bless you.
The investment in these people is huge, why not take care of your investment? From a pure financial view I have never understood this?
That is what happens to you when you occupy another country
When I was in the Navy I joined the Sea Bee's, sooooo many of them had clear signs of TBIs from IEDs. While my experience with doctors with the VA was good ( I mean they literally gave me my ability to walk again back) the admin part is so terrible I think that they often gloss over diagnosis like these. The VA admin is a real nightmare to work with. Heck, I spent 12 years fighting them to even admit that I was injured while in uniform. Not fun. I wish everybody with TBIs all the best out there.
Now a days it's not worth fighting for this country
Thank you brother for these videos. Semper Fi. Any of my Brothers and Sisters need a friend hit me up. Fishing or whatever, in SoCal. USMC WPNS CO 2/9 HMG 91 - 94
The government arranged it ley them fix it. Why do the people have to worry about. We face battles everyday too ya nerd.
I thought if you were a college grad they wouldn’t draft you?!
But then we got men to spend the prison held in solitary confinement for 5 years and all they were doing were selling drugs. There was no jobs. The drugs are government brings in. They've watched the police shoot children in the neighborhood and I'm talking black and white. Same neighborhood. A guy gets shot. The police shows up after the guy got shot. He seeks counseling but the 60-year-old woman standing on the porch. She doesn't get to talk to anybody. We're traumatized. We're shell shocked. I take PTS medication. I'm white. I never been to war
Thank you brother for these videos. Semper Fi.
This country fails, utterly fails on our veterans. I lucked out.. I served when no war was occurring. Thankful my son avoided front lines, and my brother. But.. shame on us for not DEMANDING they get everything needed to recover from a living nightmare they re-live constantly. Americans are clueless to the true cost of war.
Fighting for whom!??? The swamp! Shadow government? UN European union WEF NATO Fabian Society coup d'etat world order. Hollywood celebrities! Self-service servants & Minions silent sabotage actuators. Public servants intelligence agencies! Disgusting respect for their freedoms let alone using the them for a coup.
Epileptic that's had over 300 seizures. Seizures suck. These men should be taken better care of. THANK THESE POLITICIANS ONCE AGAIN
That serves them right, where were they and Why ????
TBI sucks. Hes right now docment no purple heart just constant amnesia, migraines, mood swings insomnia
Stop invading foreign lands
To make matters far worse, Veterans Affairs have sometimes "lost" service members' records. In 2011, 14,000 records were deleted in the West. They kept delaying my appointments and neglecting to call me. Eventually they sent me a letter stating they had no record of me being in service. That was after I had sent them numerous copies of my records. After giving them appointment slip copies from when I was still in service, along with pictures of wounds and D.A.V. help, i got a small disability rating. Eventually that 30% got bumped up to 60%. Numerous times I was told they can't give me disability for some of my back and hearing ssues. It's an uphill battle for many; it's even harder for people with nonvisible issues. Thanks to the needless games/shenanigans, many vets give up.
We need complete reform for the VA to where they actually care about the problems vets have.
We should cherish these soldiers by not sending them to fight foreign wars. 🇺🇲
You just don't get it guys , you don't have to fight
It’s hard serving a country that has been at war for most of its existence💔
My question is, was it worth it?
Wow
It's the guilt eating them up.
I pray that President Trump makes sure every one of our bravest men and women get ALL the care and support they need! They should come before anyone else!!
Thank you for getting the word out.
Thank y'all for your service ❤️
All that for Israel or rich billionaires to further line their pockets :/
Multiply that by 10,000 and you have army units with the same
For those who don't do abbreviations TBI = traumatic brain injury
GOD BLESS YOU!
The VA said I didn't have tbi, but I would get vertigo now, fell off a ladder a few times losing my balance, get car sick, never had those problems but I don't know if tbi causes it
VA denied my TBI after an IED as well.
I WAS AS CAREGIVER FOR A LONG TIME,,, MANY MANY MANY OF THE RESIDENTS HAD TBI,, IT US DEVASTATING. FAMILIES FALL TO PIECES, BEHAVIOR CHANGES RADICALLY, VERBAL/ PHYSICAL/ MENTAL/,,,COMPLETELY CHANGED OR ALTERED PERSONALITY. DEAR GODHELP IUR VETERANS.
The universe has a strange way of correcting wrongs.... May the civilian victims of these criminals rest in peace.
The VA needs to be disbanded and all vets should get medical help like other country's offer ,the VA been a slush fund for politics the money needs to go to veterans they need to do a audit and investigation of the VA of things that happened in the last 4 years
They all deserve the purple Heart Thier real heroes somethings in medical are unseen and some injuries are invisible until you start feeling it documented case's don't prove a thing but it hits hard than people think I blame Democrats for everything and people who are like Bush Jr, Obama,Joe Biden, Kamila and friends I blame you should blame as well Thier responsible can't make things up
Just don't go invading other countries and then whine when you are hit back. Simple af
Once you’ve experienced the worst you cannot without the right help and support be your best. So many wartime vets struggle with daily life the system doesn’t understand veterans there needs to be training for Hospitals and other agencies it’s the same here in the UK.
Take care of our veterans. Thank all of you for your service to our nation.
They gave me 80% after serving ten years as infantry. My first rating for a TBI was at 40% and 6 years later they dropped in down to 20%.
U.S. Service person! You can get free massage covered by VA. Talk to your VA primary physician. F those pain meds! Look up Zeel for Veterans!
And all for what? To be treated as a f lunatic, as a threat, as a any ordinary citizen , when you fought for everyone peace literally with your and friends blood.
There's a clinical trial test at USF in Tampa Florida for active military and veterans to reduce the symptoms of TBI using hyperbolic chambers.
Been there done a version of all of that,, TBI, loss of consciousness for days, fragmented coccyx , 100% rated?, lots of other good things. Fun fun
