Okay. You've said something that we have observed, which is that if you don't get trauma treated when you're younger, you will have symptoms later in life, and it increases near the end of your life. They are troubled by that. They start getting flashbacks. As you've said, it can be confused with dementia, and so on. I think it's the evidence of untreated trauma. That's why we want to—on the advice of our World War II veterans—offer a chance for them to drop this baggage when they're younger.
So how do I see going forward with this? I would say one of the best treatments for older vets is to be in the company of other veterans who have some paraprofessional training. Where do veterans feel most at home? They feel most at home among those they have served with. Going forward, what I'd like to see is the government agencies working with community agencies or public programs like ours in the community to support these people. It isn't a one-shot treatment.
Your suggestion has interested me in coming back to that as a focus that we might consider out here: how do you ensure the support of older veterans who've had trauma? My answer? Keep them connected with other soldiers. That's what they appreciate. Whether it's pavilions, or if VAC does that, or colleges and universities set out to help create these groups, I think that's one of our best bets. Because that's where they feel at home.
