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." https://taskandpurpose.com/florida-va-veteran-suicide/ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PATCHMAN Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 (edited) Damn! Those who serve their country, and their families, pay many costs both small and big. Some of those costs are well known, Some are hidden. Payers to those who serve their countries and their communities.

minervadoe Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 A life of sacrifice should not be treated this way. Low pay, long hours and high risk should not be rewarded by being treated with a system operating the way the V.A. does. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
