As a medic during the Second Battle of Fallujah, Christine Knight stayed in the back of a tracked ambulance, ready to provide lifesaving care following the initial bombardment. “Sitting and not doing anything is the worst,” she added. When they began getting word of injured Marines, she helped treat shrapnel and gunshot wounds to the arms or legs. However, once the Marines reached the Fallujah government center, casualties began pouring out. The carnage she saw was unlike anything she’d experienced before. Knight’s story is just one of many included in DAV’s latest multimedia project commemorating the 20th anniversary of the battle and its effect on those who served during the most intense urban fighting since the Vietnam War. Visit fallujahstories.org to view the full project and hear interviews with Knight and other veterans. #Fallujah20

A recent explosion of interest has encircled psychedelics and their potential medical use. Psychoactive drugs like psilocybin—the active compound in psychedelic mushrooms—LSD and MDMA have long been Schedule 1 drugs but are now being investigated for their potential healing properties, particularly for post-traumatic stress disorder, depression and other mental health conditions affecting veterans. As these veterans with PTSD and other mental health ailments remain hopeful for change, a growing number are turning to psychedelic treatment outside the US. #DAV #veterans #psychedelics #psychedelictherapy #PTSD #military
Is psychedelic therapy for veterans only on foreign soil?
