Veteran's Day (11 November 09)
Veteran's Appreciation Day with my guys, Combat Veteran's International (CVI) at Retirement Community Parkway Chateau Bellingham, Wash. What a Motley Crew!!
It was great to have Bridget and the Combat Veterans International at the dedication of our Veterans Wall of Honor here at the Parkway Chateau. All of us who had wartime experiences share a common bond together. E.T. "Johnny" Johnson TMCS(SS)USN (RET)
Thank you so much for your service to our country. It was such a pleasure honoring you and the other veterans on that day. I am so happy that it lifted some spirits and hopefully made some lasting memories. I know that Combat Veterans International (CVI) were also touched by being there for all of you. It is true you ALL have a special bond which goes unspoken.
I have worked with veterans for nearly twenty years helping them work through issues dealing with combat and reintegration. I specialize in PTSD and work directly with deployed troops and their families. I also work specifically with Chaplains, military leaders, and military health care providers in helping to recognize signs and symptoms in themselves and their troops as well as provide interventions that can aid them in their journey. I conduct workshops with all branches of service across the country and internationally.
