Vets Helping Vets : Why We Do itRecently I was waiting in the Rehabilitation waiting room at mylocal V.A. hospital for injections to alleviate the pain in my knees,the worst of it after the meniscectomy I received last year for theknee damage sustained in Afghanistan. While I waited severalmen in ties walked past carrying prosthetic legs, followed by atall, well built young man wearing black Under Armor withsensors connected to it at various points of his torso. I thought,“Marine? Special Forces? Clearly the physique of an excellentathlete. Why was he here in Rehab?” Perhaps because he lostmost of his left leg while serving his country. Under Armor is a commonly worn by athletes and the military.At the same time a program was airing on CNN, where threemale and two female veterans were being interviewed. Theyspoke of the challenges they had continue to experience.Afterward the CNN anchor asked the reporter, “After all ourservice people go through, do they think it is worth it?” Thereporter replied, “That is a great question … it isn’t going to war,or they pay, or anything like that … it is your fellow servicemembers and a shared experience that makes it “worth it”. I canattest to that. Many of my closest and dearest friends I have onlyseen wearing military issue. I often look at my phone and seethat 90 percent of the messages are somehow related to mymilitary service.
