Welcome to the new Veterans & Military forum

[snickelfritz]

I'd like to start out by saying that I am a veteran. I served in the United States Army. Mostly overseas, but I did a few things here in the States as well.
Those of you that are veterans, or even active military, please feel free to come on in & tell your tales. (At least those that you can talk about)

WB456 will be the "jarhead" in charge of this new section.
Siempre Fidelis!

Let me introduce myself I am WB456 I am 59 and married to my sweetie for 28 years now. I am a MMJ patient in the state of Washington in the SW corner of the state.I spent three years in the Marines, 22 months of which I spent "Across the Pond". Uncle Lynden let me out early.
I suffer from the effects of Agent Orange exposure some of which the only relief I can get is when I consume Cannabis, besides I really like to get stoned. The Corps introduced me to the Sweet Leaf in 1968. It was some real nice Vietnamese. Those were the days. The adrenalin rush!

Hello fellow battle buddies. Yes, I am still currently enlisted in the Army National Guard. I am on a medical leave, trying to obtain a medical discharge for being diagnosed with severe PTSD, obtained in the line of duty. Its nice to see so many other service members that may have a story just like mine. GP is a wonderful, knowledgable site, and Im thankful to be a part of it!

Were you in an air unit.
I'm sure you know the Ranch Hand Motto;

"Only we can prevent forests".

Nice to have you on board.

I salute you Mystic Gypsy. You have my utmost respect. Thanks for getting my back and volunteering your life for freedom. Glad you could stop in and say hi to your military brothers and sisters. When I was in, there were very few women in the ranks.
I have a friend and comrade who I was in Nam with who cannot see or talk to me any more. The sound of my voice makes him flash back.
I am sure cannabis can help you if not conquer than give you some relief. There is a strain data base or two here that could help you decide what might be the best strains for your condition
First is Storm Crows medicinal database

Second is the strain data base which will help you choose the type of cannabis that best fits your needs.

Any time you want to shoot the shit or unload, send me a PM and we'll get together.

Hola Pullo
I ran a heavy pole line construction crew when I was in Nam. It was a great job. 50 ft. up in the air, hanging off the side of a telephone pole. Can you say TARGET PRACTICE. LOL
Welcome to the Vets forum and thanx for your service.

You made laugh out loud!
If I had been drinking it would have come out my nose.
Thanks for the chuckle.

Thank you all for your service and welcome back home.
