Hello let me introduce myself. My name is Dave Barker. I am a veterans service officer employed by Department of Ohio AMVETS, stationed at the Chilliciothe VAMC. My office shares the same area as the PTSD program. I work with the doctors and MSW's daily. My job is to assist veterans in their problems with the government and the VA in particular.
For over 25 years I have served veterans from WWI to Iraq and Afghanistan and all conflicts and expeditions in between. This topic has been started at the request of Sgt Mom.
Hopefully we can provide assistance and guidance for those needing help. I am giving you a link to my website, where you can read information on PTSD, as well as the Persian Gulf War veteran. These are books and articles I have written based on actual experience, education, representing veterans and research.
You can e-mail me direct through my website. I do not put my e-mail on forums as the robots read them and plug my system with junk e-mails.
