We are finding around 30-40% of troops returning from deployment suffering from ilness of the mind directly related to their war service.The big problem, just like us vietnam vets, they dont recognize that they have a problem it is everyone else. check out our aussie site www.youngdiggers.com.au JohnSee More

So glad to hear from you! Love the website. I see you have an assistance dog program also - all good. We have people coming out of the woodwork, here in the state of Wisconsin, wanting to do horse programs for disabled and PTSD Vets. I'm hoping this will really take off - from what I've heard, it's working some small miracles.
You take care friend.
