In memory of Sgt Brett Aycock. I did not know you brother but I know all to well the invisible wounds that cost you your life. If not for some luck they would have cost me mine. You fought and inspired others to fight a relentless enemy and left us a hero. Rest in Peace
Those of us who carry the invisible wounds of combat trauma are still fighting a war, every moment of every day, against an unrelenting enemy hell bent on destroying us. This enemy has many weapons in its arsenal, it is patient, and it knows our weaknesses. This enemy can lose every battle but one and still win the war. We, as PTSD Veterans, must remain vigilant on the battlefield of our minds and be present for our brothers and sisters fighting right beside us. The casualties in this war continue to grow and we may never completely defeat this insurgent enemy; but, we must stand together, continue to fight, and NEVER surrender!
