   Thank you for puting this all together. As a Coast Guard wife, I know our situation is a bit different, our members come and go ever couple months, but the reentry issues are about that same. This is why I am getting my Masters. I want to help the families adjust and learn how to preserve the marriage and family relationships. Again thank you for all your work!

   Thank you Will Wilson for giving us a vivid picture of what is needed. The information you gave on what is required for the returning service members and their families, I agree that there is a lot of talk about service members not getting the help they need, but we need to think of this from their point of view. Maybe, they don’t think they need help or just maybe, they feel justified in the way they feel. I think we as mental health learners need to work hard at getting our degree in order to assist in giving the help that they need. I am getting a certificate in mental health but, I have 28 years of experience working with young adults with mental illness, and with disbilities. I would never want to ask a service member what happened there because it could cause a regression back to the war, which they should not forget but, only to put it in perpective.
