Please keep your vets in mind this holiday season.
ST. PETERSBURG — On Dec. 10, retired Marine Col. Jim Turner put on his dress uniform and medals and drove to the Bay Pines Department of Veterans Affairs complex. He got out of his truck, sat down on top of his military records and took his own life with a rifle. Aside from leaving behind grieving family and friends, Turner, 55, of Belleair Bluffs, left behind a suicide note that blasted the VA for what he said was its failure to help him. "I bet if you look at the 22 suicides a day you will see VA screwed up in 90%," wrote Turner, who was well-known and well-respected in military circles. "I did 20+ years, had PTSD and still had to pay over $1,000 a month health care."

typo? Not a lot of 64 year old soldiers in war zones. If it’s real, PM me and I’ll get a package out to him and his unit.

He's an old Marine but he's doing contract work now so not with an actual unit. This is I think the 3rd time he's gone there. Says this will be the last. And yes he's 64.

I saw soldiers on TV being spit on in the Vietnam era when they returned to the USA. As a small child, I didn't understand why people were blaming them.They had no choice. There was a draft. Go to jail, leave all your country forever, family and friends or go wherever the military sent you. How was this their fault? My dad served and went to the local VFW. I started volunteering there to help soldiers. I've since worked for the military for years as an adult(no longer do) and got to know these vets on a personal level. Working alongside them and they go home and kill themselves because the trauma of war isn't always physical. This effort has always been about the soldiers. No Politics. The regular grunts doing the work, serving our country. Recognizing their and their families sacrifice to protect the USA while I'm safe back home.
