your congressmen asking for:
1. Mandatory grieving for all Military Personel before they get out of boot camp (like the Police and Fire men get so they know what to expect when they lose a partner in action).
2. Two weeks mandatory Debriefing for all Military personel prior to disscharge (to give them tools to help them cope and deal with stress).
3. Make support groups available after discharge (so they have someone to talk to that can relate to what they have been through).
Please include our organization's name (The Long Walk Home) because united we have a louder voice.
