If you’re wondering who that is, i’m the hairy guy to your right. What I am is a two tour combat veteran who had the pleasure of seeing the country of Iraq a couple of times. I served for almost ten years, after getting out in 2013 without much of a plan. I was angry drinking a bit to much and kinda jaded and angry with the world around me. My Dad being the guy he was threw me a book and a plane ticket and told me to figure it out. And like any good Infantrymen I said sure why not. I hiked the Camino in thirty day’s and by the end of it I was calmer less angry and a little open to the world. So why am I here? Well I started to think about what the Camino De Santiago did for me and what it could do for others like me. I wish I had a transition time, between my service and civilian life. So this answers why am I here? Well I figured “why not ,” why not help my brother’s and sister’s suffering from P.TS.D we don’t leave anyone behind and i’m not going to do it now. This isn’t a cure all but from the research I have done, and the research that has been done “why not.” I hope with this organization we can build a community that stops the dreaded number from 22 to 0 and that everyone who walks the warriors way can find a little peace “why not.”
