Hi guys and girls. I'm an ex soldier and due to active services in1990, I lost 5 pals in a 1000 bomb.

i know that there is a lot of support  on DBG and its important to talk about issues, I'm not to sure how the moderators would negotiate this issue, whether ex soldiers suffering from PTSD, GAD would benefit from an area of DBG website where soldiers can talk to soldiers, ex soldiers talking to serving soldiers about mental health.

i wish that when I had my break down that there were people that could have helped me in some way but back then PTSD wasn't even recognised.

Any feedback would be very much appreciated, thank you kindly, johnny

 
Greetings brother - I did one hitch on active duty, 5-21 Infantry Regiment at Fort Ord, then the 7th Infantry Division (back when they were designated a "Light" Infantry Division) Long Range Surveillance Detachment (LRSD, again, at Fort Ord), as our British cousins say, I had two good little wars, Just Cause (Panama) while I was with the 7th's LRSD  in from '89 - '90 (so you and I may have chewed some of the same dirt), then recalled to active duty from the USAR for Kosovo from '99 - '01, attached to 1-26 Infantry Regiment.  I retired from the National Guard in '03, right before the current goat rope in the Middle East started - Too old to be of use in that kind of fight, I guess the Army figured.

Anyway, I'm a retired fellow vet with 23 years of combined Active / Guard service under my belt - The 40% VA disability check ain't much, and the retirement check damn sure ain't much, but Tricare is nice, as long as you don't go to a VA hospital - More brothers walk or are carried into those than walk or are carried out.  If you ever need to talk, give me a shout.

  2. J @ Jbil75yahoo: What’s TxID ?
  3. xenxra @ xenxra: thanks for being a swell guy, you earned it
  4. R @ rhodium: hello all thanks for being moved to the apporved section!
  5. P @ Poppycock: @Mammasboi123 thank you, I’m still getting the hang of using this platform. Sometimes when I try to search something it will come back with nothing or tell me what I typed in wasn’t long enough or something
  6. M @ Mammasboi123: Also, keep in mind that if a thread topic doesn’t already exist for a particular mag after searching for it, for a particular msg you’ve got questions on, you can always open a new thread under the appropriate section to get member feedback. I only mention doing it this other way due to there being a rule against members/vendors advertising or soliciting mags via the Shout Box. So I wouldn’t be surprised if it gets removed at some point.
  7. M @ Mammasboi123: @Poppycock, I would encourage you or any other member looking for current options for various mags to first check if an existing thread has already been created on the topic by using the Search bar found on the upper right corner of the site. For example, here’s a recent thread that was posted just a couple months ago that shows up when I type in ‘5APB’ to the search bar: https://drugbuyersguide.info/threads/4-fma-and-6-apb.11276/#post-268359.
