Very cool of them. I have several friends and a family member with service-related PTSD and I work with clients who struggle with it. We have made great strides since Desert Storm in helping the public understand this affliction and what it means to those who experience it, but we still have a long way to go. Many workplaces are still hesitant to hire veterans because they think the person will have a flashback and start attacking office staff (yes, this is still a thing).

Ok, slightly off-topic, but can anyone identify the bumper on that 4Runner?

I recently discovered them and immediately purchased some stickers/patches. Something small that any of us can do to help support and spread the word about people taking on a great cause. I'm also going to encourage my brother to become an OB member today. Classy move regarding memberships @Corrie and @Michael.

Several us reached out to them over a year ago to see if they wanted to expand to other areas like AZ. We never heard anything from them. Totally support their efforts but I hope they will expand and would be willing to expand under the same umbrella. Because that would be the most effective way to help those in need. There are a lot of great charities out there but they are also very fragmented. I will reach out to them again.

Great job on sharing some revenue and brining further awareness to the group.

Great story. Thanks for bringing them to OB.com. Would be great to participate with them in a NorCal overnight in the spring!
