Welcome to the Faces of Combat PTSD blog. Here we hope to not only help veterans and their families in finding the help that they need but to educate the general public on the necessity of resources to assist those who have served.

The stories told in Faces of Combat are heartbreaking and all too common. Each day we are reminded of the number of suicides perpetrated by both active service members and veterans. The common knowledge number of suicide by veterans is stated as 18 per day while the number of active duty suicides has now exceeded the number of deaths due to combat. These numbers are horrifying.

On this website, you will find links to various resources. Some may be of help to you Continue reading and add your comment →

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.
