Here is a video that I received today from a friend, Mary Jo Beckman that I have worked with in the Horses for Heroes program through PATH International (Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship), formerly NARHA, and TROT (Therapeutic Riding of Tucson). New Video Profile: The campaign launched its most recent video profile of Staff Sgt. Stacy Pearsall (http://www.realwarriors.net/multimedia/profiles/pearsall.php) (U.S Air Force, retired). As a combat photographer documenting every aspect of war, including heavy fighting during multiple Iraq deployments, Pearsall received numerous physical injuries and experienced post-traumatic stress disorder from the events she witnessed. With help from a friend, she found needed support through her local Department of Veterans Affairs. Mary Jo's addition: ***AND HORSES*** This is worth watching. There is another dozen or so clips of other veterans telling their stories that are worth watching.
