Let’s all dump on the vet! Come on, some of you guys have dumped on everyone in the Trump world today - why stop with Track?
I think there are a number of veterans who suffer from PTSD. This is another area that Trumps wants to help veterans on.
It just ain't right.
“It took 3 reporters to write this. “
Good observation.
-
WWII it was called shell shock.
The vets got married and raised families. Committed relationships and responsibility.
Our present day society is anchor less and rudderless.
I sure thought of PTSD when I heard of his incident.. fit the symptoms like a textbook,, hope he gets good help soon
Big drunk brawl last Oct. ...with Bristol at the center.
and beat there kids.I have welts to prove it
PTSD from being named “Track”.
This isn’t his first rodeo. Did they seek help the last time? Also, does the rest of the family that was in that drunken brawl a while back suffer from PTSD as well?
Well I hope things get better for him, I cannot even begin to imagine what it is like.
I don’t have any military history, beyond my grand fathers on both sides. One is 94 and still living, he was so traumatized by it, the most I have ever gotten out of him about his experience fighting is that he was a machine gunner. He only did this once and then just stared for a long time in the distance, and that was when he was a lot younger than he is now.
I have the utmost respect for anyone that has made the sacrifice of serving in the armed forces. I will not attack Palin for her sons problems due to his experience in the military.
Not much sunlight up there this time of year. Easy to understand how people get drunk and crazy.
Yes, those pills can take away whatever it is that acts as a governor of our behavior. We would do better to send these returning men on a fishing trip at a nice campsite so they can unwind and tune into nature and other good things.
And strip their God Given 2nd Amendment rights.
And there were more than a few of us baby boomers who saw our brace WW-II combat veteran fathers fall apart as the years went by. Eleanor Roosevelt said that she felt our returning combat vets had been so traumatized by their war experiences they should be given up to a year of recovery in a peaceful restorative therapeutic environment if they needed it before being expected to fully assimilate back into civilized life. I think she was completely correct about this.
When you are raised a “snowflake”, it just makes sense that someday, you will melt.
The few facts reported here about Track would be consistent with combat-related PTSD.
I meant to say brave not brace.
Where did Track serve?
