I am leaving Topeka KS this morning I am taking my son to Clarksville Tenn. He served in Iraq with the 101st infantry division. When he returned he had an incedent with the law was placed on probation and the Army discharged him and he failed to make a court apperance and failed to meet with his probation officer he has been n the run. He showed up yesturday asking me for help. This not the same boy that went to Iraq.
I am taking him to Clarksville Tenn and he is turning himself in I need a place to put my small pop up camper for a few days I am planning on returning to Kansas on tuesday after we find out all that he needs to do. I will also need some help trying to figure out how to help him file the paperwork to get him some help from the VA. My Cell phone Number is 785-806-3767 I will be indeted to anyone who can help out. He is a good kid he has just seen to much for as young as he is and he didnt know where to turn but to drinkin. Please help I do not have alot of money and I am doing this tohelp him. I am not asking for money just a place to camp out at.
Thank you brothers

Kids!!! our greatest joy and worst nightmare. But for the grace of God I survived to "old" age. I think my favorite saying was "hey ya'll..... watch this" and I survived. Big E, regardless of the problems your son faces now, I thank him for his service to this country. He is a hero in my book. Please let him know that. I pray that everything works out.

So you all know, we have put Big E in touch with our own Airborne. Airborne is the director of one of the VA districts in New York now.
We have given Big E the contact info and he will call her Monday, 27 September.
He found camping at Ft Campbell and hooked up with his son. His son will turn himself in tonite to the local police department so they can get the business of clearing this young Vet's name.
Big E wishes to extend his thanks to his RFTW family.

I am back home and everything turned out great. I want to thank Stonie and Airborne for there commetitment to the cause. I have been in touch with some of the finest people that are passionate about what they do . I have the utmost confidence that everything will be fine. Pam is a advacate and is at fort Campbell and she is a great person she is part of the OEFIEF program for the vets comming back from Iraq and wow what a lady she is I know some of the work has to come from him but she is an amazing person. I have her Number if anyone needs it. I am getting educated on what is available for him and me when I left there yesturday I felt like I was leaving a soldier on the battle field but I am comfortable knowing Pam is there working her heart out for him and others like him. I want to thank all my new brothers and sisters for your support and prayers, I have recieved numerous phone calls leting me know this was the best thing for him and I and his children. Thank all of you and God bless you I will update as things progress I learned on the RFTW that there is allot of information out there and all aperson needs to do is ask for help I did and you all answedr the call I am forever endeted to you all please feel free to call upon me anytime.

This is great news Big E! As you know, or are finding out, we are family. Also, so you know, there are more than a few who made similarly poor choices and joined the ARMY! There are even a few who admit to being 101st! As an airdale sailor, all I can say is even those with poor judgement are my brothers! Glad we got the wheels working! Airborne is AWESOME... uhmmm I guess I should say: AIRBORNE LEADS THE WAY! And we are lucky to have a sister like her! Thanx Airborne! Good Luck Big E!
