I don't know...the conference I am going to is about Wounded Warriors(I will be spending a week in San Antonio, at the Grand Hyatt) and I have been chosen as a delegate, so at some point I may be making a speech on their behalf on certain issues, as far as the one on one interviews with the media, I imagine it is going to be on the news and it will be in the Army newspaper worldwide. I will see what I can do about snagging a copy of the TV interviews from one of the media outlets and maybe upload it for everyone as I have had lots of folks ask me to do that.

Thanks Ladies! They are sending a Command Public Affairs person all the way from Virgina, instead of using the one here, So that means its a pretty big deal! Hope I do not stumble over my words or anything, lol.
I am just really excited about being able to talk about fellow Wounded Warriors and what we went thru and continue to go thru even after we are out of the Army. PTSD is a very traumatic thing, nightmares, anxiety attacks...the works. And trying to learn how to be a Civilain again, wow...its just hard. You go from being a Soldier with this huge mission, keeping all your emotions bottled up and then asked to function in the "Normal" world...not easy, trust me.

I just got this email, pretty excited about it. Finally going to be able to speak about the Wounded Warriors and my experiences!
"Darcy,
Your Advocate gave me your email address. I work with AW2 Stratcom in Alexandria, VA. Im writing to ask whether you might be willing to share some your experiences at the Symposium with local media. Ill be in San Antonio for the Symposium and will able to give you specifics ahead of time. For now, Im just wondering whether its something you might consider either before, during, and/or after Symposium. Please let me know what you think and if you have any questions.
Thanks very much, Lee McMahon Strategic Communications, U.S. Army Wounded Warrior Program (AW2)
U.S. Army Warrior Transition Command"
