1	Army Wounded Warrior Program (AW2) Taking care of wounded warriors is an important part of the Army's mission. The Army Wounded Warrior Program (AW2) is the official U.S. Army program that assists and advocates for severely wounded, ill, and injured Soldiers, Veterans, and their Families, wherever they are located, for as long as it takes. AW2 provides individualized support to this unique population of Soldiers, who were injured or became ill during their service in Overseas Contingency Operations since 9/11.	575
2	Carl M. Cronk My name is Carl Cronk, 5803 Ambassador Drive, Apt. 1, Saginaw, MI 48603. Phone number is 989-799-0385. Email is cmcronk74@sbcglobal.net. I have been a Veterans Service Officer since 1966. I am a U.S. Army Ambassador for the Pentagon Freedom Team. I can assist spouses with scholarships, survivors’ benefits, financial help if their spouse is deployed to the war. If their family member is wounded in the war and is in Walter Reed Hospital, I can get them free plane tickets and a place to stay to go and visit them. I can help with finding a job if they need one. If they are in need of counseling for post traumatic stress, I can do that with an organization that I helped put together called Give an Hour. There is nothing that the spouses cannot ask me to help with. I literally take care of all military and veterans’ spouses in the world.	783

The Most Loving Thing

By Dizzy -- WSA Support Group Leader, Forum and WSA Member

A year ago today I walked out of the assisted living community without her. It was quiet--deeply quiet--walking alone to my rented car and driving away. Away. A dreadful word loomed just beyond my sense of exhaustion, relief and freedom. I didn't think about it head-on, but it lurked there waiting. Abandonment.

A series of illness had hijacked her, and me, and dropped us in a strange land. Her with dementia, me with my own madness for which I have no name. It is the madness of loss--loss of a lovely home, a good job, friends, family, retirement, travel, community, intimacy, companionship--peace.
