From today's Philadelphia Inquirer, in a piece about haunted Vietnam veterans:
Many were Vietnam veterans who, according to former program director Steve Silver, himself a Vietnam veteran, hadn't ever dealt with the trauma they carried home from war. They were now in their 50s and 60s, often with histories of alcoholism, lost marriages and failed careers.As I'm neither a Vietnam war veteran, nor in my 50s or 60s, this is of course not me. And no, I'm not going to falsely claim veterans' benefits in his name. Posted by Stephen Silver at March 11, 2008 05:09 PM
