You all assume he was lonely in the last years of his life but maybe that was his choice not everyone who lives alone is lonely, but it was good that in death he was honoured as a veteran, I’m a navy veteran I was born with my heart on my sleeve shirt do you have any ideas about what could help or how to find people who have need a community?
I’m a navy veteran I was born with my heart on my sleeve shirt
We as Veterans suffer with depression, PTSD, nightmares, night terrors, survival guilt, suicide, and other wounds and lot of times our family and friends can’t handle being around us cause of the “stress we cause”, so now we’re alone and slowly dying alone, only with the memories of our loved ones and the people we’ve served with…Unfortunately this happens WAY TO OFTEN. If there’s no one listed as next of kin, I’m a navy veteran I was born with my heart on my sleeve shirt then the VA does not contact ANY family meet a democrat and talk. Democrats support the military, fight for veteran coverage. We may not agree with jumping into endless wars for oil or control of lands – but no den turns their back on our soldiers or veterans.

I am not a vet. I have no authority to speak for them. But, I dont think many are willing to ask for strangers to show up when they are ill. But… for veterans to see that they are valued enough for people to show up at their funeral…. this message doesnt stop with Sergeant Wunderlich. It echos across a nation of veterans. I was thinking more along the lines of engaging them into their communities. They have so much to offer, so much history and experience and its a shame they are not embraced more by their neighbors and community members, I didn’t mean to imply only in illness, but to reach out and engage in life. Too many people live loney lives now, I feel we need to figure out how to truly socially engage each other again.
I put some of it together and I started barking orders at him. One of the ladies asked me wtf I was doing, I turned and said in his head, right now, he is back in the army waiting for a command, I am commanding him! She called the daughter and she came in to thank me, she had no idea what was happening and no one in the 5 years he was there knew he was in the army. It made me sad, they dont take time to find this out, or what they need to care for them. I loved the army. And the stories!! Take time to love and honor all the elderly people, you never know where they have been or seen, history is 100%theirs…
