Eric Newhouse, the author of Faces of Combat, PTSD & TBI gave us letters to put in the packages this week. In them he offers his services in promoting better health care for our veterans. If you have anything you need help with, please let Eric or us know and we will do what we can to support your work.
Here is what Eric had to say to President Obama. (PDF)
And what he had to say to Garry Trudeau. (PDF)

The others are our weekly letters thanking both men for what they have done so far, explaining why the package is being sent, and letting them know what we hope to accomplish.
Letter from Tom Blaschko to President Obama. (PDF) [Three patriotic Republicans are all that are needed to pass legislation to help our veteran.]
Letter from Tom Blaschko to Garry Trudeau. (PDF) [It’s even worse than you can show in your strip, especially the TBIs.]

We hope to have many more letters for next week. Please help our veterans by making your views heard.

In other news, Eric wrote an article about the Montana National Guard model for treating returning soldiers on truthout. He discusses how the model will help and what else is needed to fulfill our commitment to our vets. You can see it by following this link.
