    Such an important cause. Me as a disabled veteran who spent 21 years in the USMC and was at my last effort when I was lucky enough to be provided a Medical Service Dog for my PTSD and other issues. My service dog was able to give me my life back before I took my own. My provider was Guardian Angels Medical Service Dogs and there are more organization like both of these who are helping us veterans.

    Would it not be in vain, for her, or all the Women, and even many Men, who fought for, in part, many thousands even dying - for more Equality for Women in Afghanistan, to then see the horror of the losses of so many Womens' & possibly Other, Rights, when they return here to the country they fought on behalf of, having become even more restrictive than they!!!!

    What happened that caused Gretchen to have to take their last stand on the mountain? What decisions were made by Gretchen that put her and her soldiers in that position? Questions that need to be asked and answered...Oh yeah, I am an Army combat veteran. And poor decisions by leadership is one of the top reasons missions fail and soldiers die...

    The real war started when we came home from Vietnam.
    I am 74 now, was in the Marines after HS66 1967-70 Sgt 1969 MWHG-1, MWCS-1 DaNang MOS 2817 Crypto/Teletype Tech. Then, went to college A.A. Business/Computers, 25 years Mainframe Computer Systems Analyst/Programmer. In Y2K,
    I was attacked by the deranged fascist group thinkers, my property damaged, drugged and refused to go down, got an EMS ride to the hospital E.R. I had to take an early retirement. To this day, these punks are still attacking honest people for jobs and property, I have to watch my property and myself every day to guard against these ignorant people, they are making severe electronic sounds at everyone, we are not protected by our elected officials or law enforcement, it like they represent themselves.
    Not one person in the community would stand-up and help me.
    I went to the Phila Pa VA Hospital, they did not think I had Vietnam PTSD. The V.A. Hospital staff seemed to know their were ‘Company Problems’ around whether the V.A. Administrator’s knew it or not. Actually I had Corporate PTSD - Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
