I am forever thankful to God for sparing my life in Viet Nam
and giving me a second chance. The only thing that really saddens me
is all those who DIDN'T get that second chance. I guess that is why
I spend so much of my time trying to help my fellow veterans. I went
to church as a boy, but I didn't know the meaning of having a personal
relationship with Jesus Christ until after I was wounded in Viet Nam.
Wondering why I was spared put me on a spiritual journey that resulted
in finding and accepting Christ as my personal Savior. Being the leader
of a Point Man group gives me the opportunity to help those who are
hurting and I can surely understand where they're coming from. I am
still 100% disabled due to my injury in Vietnam and am unable to work
because of a severe memory impairment due to a traumatic head injury,
but I don't have to sit back and play the part of a victim. I will do
what I can to assist those who need and want help and I will do it till
the day I die!
