Today I found out about IAVA. Iraq & Afganistan Veterans of America. This organization is attempting to wake up the Bush administration and the general public as to the short comings of our Veterans Hospitals in helping returning vets with PTSD and other problems... I watched some videos of news shows, detailing the problems of being able to get help in a timely fashion and it was an eye opener. How can we, as a country, dismiss or ignore our returning vets in this way? We shouldn't and cannot afford to continue to do so. Our returning veteran sons and daughters need help and should get it without having to wait and wait and wait.

Contact your Senators, Congressman, write the President and whoever else you can think of to do something to make it right. Our veterans fought to keep us free. We should fight to keep them healthy. Please support IAVA. Thank you.
