- 2. TESTIMONIES From the wife of a retired airman and Iraq War veteran who suffered with extreme PTSD: I have seen tremendous progress with my husband since he has been attending the (combat trauma) group. He is doing much better now, attending UTI (Universal Technical Institute) paid by Vocational Rehabilitation. From a Vietnam Vet who was severely wounded at Khe Sahn: This group is the only thing that has worked for me, after all these years. My wife can see the difference in me. He attended one of the first groups started in 2008. Today he leads a combat trauma group. He once claimed to be an atheist but now professes his faith in Jesus Christ openly. A WWII Vet, a Forward Artillery Pilot He felt he was responsible for taking the lives of over 200,000 people during the Allied war effort. He said he learned more and got more help in 2 hours in this group than he had in the previous 60 years. He had been carrying that burden for six decades with no relief of the guilt until he came to a combat trauma group. Vietnam Vet Before I came to these classes, I felt I didnt have a problem. It was everybody else that had a problem, not me. Now I realize the problem was me and my issues with God. Iraq War Vet I learned not to tell everyone what had happened to me in a combat zone and to stay away from people who were hindering rather than helping my recovery. Vietnam Vet My kids went to Disneyland and brought me back a cup with Grumpy on it. I had never told them how much pain I was in from my PTSD. Vietnam Vet This is the only place I can talk about my experiences with people that actually understandthey get it. Rather than talking to a V.A. psychiatrist who says they understand when there is no way they can.
