Journal 8 Natalie

The most important thing I noticed in the short film "Marlboro Marine" is how much war can effect a person. War can be very toxic for a person, they do many things to protect our country and sometimes today we don't appreciate the things they do for us. One idea i think we can help veterans when they return from war or understand and better support them is getting the word out there that PTSD is something we all need to take very seriously.
In holding on the thing that struck me most was that there is a difference between hobos and bums. hobos are willing to work. But bums just bum off of people and expect free handouts with nothing in return. I would go to my family's farm and work for them if i had no job or car. I could walk there because it is not too far away, and also, they are always looking for help.

  1. I feel the same way you feel with people not appreciating who they have fighting for them.I believe it would be a wonderful thing to have more people recognize what PTSD is and how we can help our veterans with it.
