Greywolf,

Like my friend Doc Hal said-----WELCOME ABOARD----and---WELCOME HOME.

Just because you're not rated "service-connected" dosen't mean you can't get some help at the VA clinics or VET Centers. They'll still see you and may be able to help.

And, like Doc Hal---------I usually don't put a whole lot of credibillity to what our other brother, Bob K (alias--- bOOgerLee) has to say. He's just a poor old retired Yankee that usually goes on and on about his relationships with "barnyard critters" and stuff like that.

But, in this case he IS right on.

My dear southern Brother J.E.B. Paco just retired as a first rate PTSD and mental health counselor and may possibly be able to steer you in the right direction. He has helped many of us on this site as well as countless others during his lengthy career.

I myself will not be able to attend the "festivities" on the mountain top this November.

But, PLEASE---PLEASE consider making the trip up with Stick this year, I'm certain it will be productive and enjoyable for you.

I'm gonna be in Arlington, Virginia and Washington, D.C. from November 4 thru November 11 for two reasons. One to commemorate the 40th anniversary of my wounding in combat on November 5, 1967 along with the deaths of a few other fine troops who died that night. And to celebrate the 25th anniversary of The Vietnam Memorial Wall during this week. Otherwise I'd more than likely be on that mountain top in "Jawga" visiting with my brothers (and sisters).

Hope you can make it.
