Serving the Nation in the Battle Against 22 as a Vietnam Vet with Terry Laverty

  Terry Laverty is a veteran Marine who volunteered to be deployed in Vietnam in 1970. Now, he’s serving the country in another way - by helping the veteran community and fighting for 22. Though the battles he fought in his younger days are vastly different from today’s, his goal remains the same: to band together and survive against all odds.   Terry joins me today to share his experience in participating in the veteran’s community and the role he plays. He shares his life as a soldier and why he’s active in the fight for 22. He describes some great success stories as well as explain how the community has taught them to help veterans. Terry also discusses his thoughts on alternative treatments and why anyone with PTSD can be helped.       “People can survive PTSD through proper doctoring and assistance.” - Terry Laverty       In This Episode of Surviving Me:       Connect with Terry Laverty           Help Military Veterans Share Their Story   Thanks for tuning into the Surviving Me Podcast, the show for military veterans find the support they need to survive the battle within.
