LOST TIME

From JOHN PARKS, on Thu, 26 Dec 1996 23:07:26 GMT

I SERVED WITH THE MARINES for 18 months as a crewcheif on helocopters.
I am diagnosed and suffering with PTSD.After 27 years of pain and fear
not only do I miss the time of normalicy some people seem to have had
I also miss the great opportunity that I had to learn of a culture and
a people as a whole. If there had been a better understanding mabey
I wouldn't be still in such pain and anguish over what I feel as my own 
inadequaties to being "normal"
