Episode 5 - Yves Leduc-Butterworth

Yves is a Colour Sergeant with the Canadian Grenadier Guards, Afghanistan veteran, and founder of the Concordia University Veterans' Association. Currently deployed to Latvia, he has also volunteered months of his time to help with the refugee crisis in Greece.  Extremely well spoken and well read, Yves has been through the wringer when it comes to psychological trauma both pre and post deployment and is a one hell of a good inspiration for anyone suffering out there with mental health issues.  You can find the Concordia Veterans' Association here: http://www.conuvets.ca/ And here on FB: https://www.facebook.com/ConUVets/ Books discussed: Three Cups of Tea - Greg Mortensen On Killing - Dave Grossman Tribe - Sebastien Junger Here are some veteran resources that can make a world of difference if you're struggling: Veteran Transition Network - Intense group session work over numerous weekends (best thing I could've ever done) Veterans' Assistance Service 24/7 -  Call toll-free: 1-800-268-7708 TDD/TTY: 1-800-567-5803
