issue 7

Finally, there is a place for veterans and their families, to go to on the web for good Christian support. The Veteran's Alliance Support Group is that place on the web for those still dealing with Vietnam combat issues such as Agent Orange, PTSD or other related concerns. There motto is a simple one: "Covering the world with the good news of Christ Jesus and the issues of Agent Orange."
There is a growing movement of dedicated veterans from around the world dedicated to the service of helping veterans make those adjustments in their lives to find inner peace and also physical heath (related to Agent Orange information). This group does not restrict their help to just those of the Christian faith but have open hearts for all that may come with questions or seeking assistance.
The following tells more about their mission and organization. I have copied this from their email invitation to join that was sent to me recently:

REUNIONS ON THIS WEB SITE

I have been pleased and very happy to report that veterans and their families have been using this web site to find each other. I have been contacted by many people who wanted to connect with others who were members of the old 128th Assault Helicopter Company. Finding those veterans on the locator list has made this task much easier for many. What was unexpected however, was all those relatives of our unit's KIA, who were looking for information about their loved ones.
Several interesting twists and turns have put families in touch with each other the past several months. To all those still seeking information about those who served with The 129th AHC - please continue to email me, or to post your request directly on our Discussion page that is linked from the Tomahawk Page.

The holiday season is upon us once again. These same wonderful spiritual days of celebration, can become a depressed emotional prison for some of our brothers. This is the time of the year to include all veterans in your prayers and in your outreach to others.

As long as one of our brothers is still suffering, there is still much work to do. If you do not know what you can do then contact some of your local veteran's groups and organizations and ask. Sometimes they might need the support of money, or food - but some groups may need volunteers to assist them in some way. If you can not give money, then give of yourself - if you cannot give of your own time, then give them your prayers - but give them love and emotional support!
