Tactman,

You face the flashbacks and the nightmares head on. There is no going around them. You can't bury them, you can't dodge them. They are part of you. You have to face everything, again, and again, and again. You have to feel the emotions that those nightmares, and flashbacks cause. You must relive the trauma over. Feel the fear, the hate, the pain, the raw feeling again. Yes it hurts, it's awful, it's not fair, but it's the only way out of your emotional hell. You have to walk through it.

I am so sorry that you boys/men/women are there. But I am grateful that you are. I would not have the courage to be one of you.


Thank you for who you are, what you do, and thank you for protecting me.
