Eric Newhouse update

We have the following post from Eric Newhouse at EricNewhouse.com.

I’d like to fill you in on an ambitious campaign by my publisher, Idyll Arbor, to get copies of my latest book, Faces of Combat: PTSD & TBI, into the hands of as many veterans as possible.

Idyll Arbor is sending a copy of my book to every VFW state headquarters.  And it promises to donate one book to a VFW post for every book it sells.

So if you haven’t read Faces of Combat, this is a great time to do so. If you buy a copy today, Idyll Arbor will send a free book to a VFW post where it can be help vets and their families understand the emotional and neurological injuries they may have brought home from combat.

Or if you’ve already been moved by Faces of Combat and want to make a donation, Idyll Arbor has an even better offer. “If someone wants to buy a few books to donate somewhere, we’ll give them a 50% discount and send out the same number of books to VFWs,” says my publisher, Tom Blaschko. “It’s like getting four books to people who can use them for the price of one. People can call us or place orders on the Idyll Arbor website.”

So please help us get more of these books into the hands of vets and their families.

Cilla McCain says Non-Hostile Deaths Are Overtaking Veterans

Cilla McCain:  “For nearly a decade, I’ve been researching and writing about the issue of non-hostile deaths in the military. Early on in my research, I would get upset at the information provided by our troops and their families. Their revelations painted a picture of a dysfunctional military culture that allows medical and legal malpractice, as well as violent crime, to thrive and exist…”

She goes on to say that suicide prevention is a failure and that many deaths liste3d as suicide may actually be murders.

If you want to do something to help, sign the “The Stahlman-Shue Bill of Rights for Bereaved Military Families” to insure investigations are accurate and that the nation’s military families have a voice in the process. Please pass the word on to others.
