Military who serve, but don't get treated for PTSD by Government

[Nate Dogg]

This is one of the issues of our government who don't treat people who served in our country if they develop Post-Traumatic Stress and Disorder. The government just uses you while you serve, give you a salary, and has a retirement package. However this retirement package doesn't include treatment for PTSD and health related issues to this problem if it arises.

A U.S. Army veteran who struggled with post-traumatic stress and depression after serving in Iraq died Monday night after a shootout with two police officers atop a Northeast Portland parking garage.
Santiago Cisneros III, 32, had called his mother shortly before and told her something to the effect of "I've got to go to a better place," a family friend said.

With Cisneros' cell phone still connected, his mother heard the rapid gunfire that followed.

Portland detectives Tuesday continued to collect evidence in the second officer-involved fatal shooting of the year. A Multnomah County grand jury convened this week to review last month's police shooting.

With the governments still lack of concern with their military after they serve our country, this is another reason why I never joined the armed forces.

Cisneros found help through the Veterans Administration and the National Center for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder in Northern California, he said on TV.
