Navy Veteran Shares His Sources of Healing After Trauma

Glenn served in the Navy from 1971 to 1972 as a quartermaster in Vietnam, which was rare at the time for a Black man. He experienced instances of racism that left him injured and feeling unsafe among his peers. After service, he became homeless, was depressed, and, at his lowest point, tried to end his own life. A psychosocial rehabilitation and recovery center (PRRC) and PTSD support groups helped Glenn find sources of healing.

I’m sorry to hear about the racism you experienced and happy to hear VA is providing you with support deserved.

I wish that I could say something to help, Shipmate. Such a story you have! I hope that you are succeeding in your battle with PTSD. [Do we ever win the battle, tho?]
