I want to start by saying the best resource out there is our battle buddies. Nobody in this world will look out for you like your battle-buddies that is always a place to start. So reach out to either the ones you knew in the service or reach out to a fellow battle-buddy you have in all of us in the Best of Us channel in game or facebook group.
The first recommendation I have for receiving help is a great program I have heard wonders about is Give an Hour- (they say it’s for post 9/11 vets but I don’t see them turning down a vet of any generation they are a good program)
My second recommendation would be to seek out your local American Legion or VFW post. They are everywhere in the states and they are vets who have been helping each other out for a long time they have many good personnel who have dealt with most likely a lot of the same problems you are going through.
