And more sides of the coin
A veteran of more than one tour to Iraq, Navy corpsman “Doc” also has a must-read milblog. Here he addresses the topic of PTSD, and points to others who’ve experienced it themselves.
Another milblogger with some insight into the wounds of war is Chuck Ziegenfuss. Chuck was blogging from Iraq as a company commander, routinely “outside the wire”. But one fatefull day he was hit by an IED, and began a long road home. His wife took over the site during Chuck’s initial recovery, and kept the world informed of his progress and their experiences. Chuck got back into blogging shortly thereafter, and the entire series of events led to the formation of the Valour-IT (Voice-Activated Laptops for OUR Injured Troops) project – an effort to get laptop computers and voice-activated software to wounded troops in Walter Reed. If you think Chuck and Carren might have something to say about the current Walter Reed news, you’re right.
