My name is Paul, and I've been suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder for 40 years. Do you need to talk? If so, I may be able to help.

You should understand from the start, I'm not a professional therapist. I'm not licensed to give counseling. Nothing can take the place of professional counseling, and if you feel like you need to talk to someone I urge you to take the step necessary and seek out professional guidance.

• No Fee!
• No Kidding!

Let me tell you a little about myself...

I was in the U.S. Army and I served my country in Vietnam from August of 1967 to August of 1968. In fact, I come from a strong military family. As I said, I served in the Army, as did a younger brother. An older brother served in the U.S. Navy for twenty-two years, and our father was a Marine and who was part of a diversionary force during D-Day in 1944.

My time in Vietnam was with the 1/9 Cavalry Division, I-corps, Headquarters from Cameron Bay in the south then up north near the 17th parallel, the area referred to as the DMZ or Demilitarized Zone in the north, though the area was anything but demilitarized. In fact, the DMZ was the setting for some of the heaviest fighting of the Viet Nam War. While in the north I was about twenty miles from the DMZ and ten miles from the ocean. I also took part in military missions inside both Laos and Cambodia.

When I first arrived I was in the south at Camp Radcliff in the An Khe/An Tuc area in the Central Highlands. The landing zone at Camp Radcliff was LZ Two Bits. Later I was transferred up north to Camp Evans just north of the 16th parallel and north-west of Hue. I was also in Da Nang, My Lai, Chu Lai, Dak To, Quang Tri, and Dong Ha.

I was awarded the Bronze Star.

So, needless to say, but I will say it and I'm proud to do so: My brothers and I love our country. We've served proudly.

To reiterate: Are you having difficulty getting the V.A. benefits you deserve? I think I can help. Call me. If I'm home (even if I'm bouncing my grandkids on my knee) I'll talk as long as you want (I once spoke to one guy for over three hours!). If I'm not home please leave a message, your first name, and your phone number and I will get back to you.
