4. As a @USArmy officer, I also watched dozens of soldiers' lives spiral out of control from drug addictions that started with military prescribed opioids. My unit was also plagued by "an endemic of suicides" — exactly as described in this article.
My boy Andrew Whitworth has walked the walk with @VetsandPlayers since Day 1. He is a huge human with an even bigger heart. Thank you, Whitt, for making our brothers and sister at MVP feel special and loved! @RamsNFL#MVP#LA#Football#WeGotYourBack#BigHeart
This is my personal story and why I do what I do. As a former officer it is my duty to support and advocate on the behalf of other veterans - more important now than ever.
With current events happening in Afghanistan, it’s normal to feel and experience complicated emotions. Let’s resist bottling up those up and isolating in our own thoughts. Reach out to a battle buddy or friend. #veteransupport#yourenotalone#afghanistan
The final hours of Kabul: "Today was one of the worst days of my life. We are leaving people we know behind, in danger. It’s terrifying." https://t.co/OEMbvpJghw
The US Embassy called reports of Taliban executing surrendering soldiers “deeply disturbing” and said such acts could constitute war crimes.

Today's events have no place in our democracy, a system US servicemembers sacrificed to protect for over two centuries. IAVA condemns the violence and anarchy we are witnessing, urges our citizens to return home and reminds everyone of the democratic ideals that form our country.

On the battlefield, any doorway can be a death trap. A special ops vet, and his businessman brother, have built an AI to solve that problem. https://t.co/tkDP5wheC2
Warrior Rising “seeks to make a difference for those veterans who want to continue to serve, lead, and profit from their own achievement.” At its heart, it aims to give veterans that sense of purpose again — this time, in their own businesses.
