Their mission had ended, their battle still roared

 

For Brothers and Sisters

who couldn't make it thru

 

Their Mission had ended

but their battle still roared

 

A life filled with turmoil

they wanted no more

 

NO K.I.A. Reported

No purple heart to hold

 

Just add it to a number

That's easy to ignore

 

Adopt a Soldier will remember

Just what that number's for

 

Fighting for solutions

to 22 no more

What is a Teal Star Family?

• The United States has categorized military families into two groups, the Blue Star  Family, which represents those whose family member is serving our Country. A blue star banner is hung proudly for all to see.

• The Gold Star is presented to the families of those service members Killed in Action. This is the star that NO family wants. The ultimate sacrifice, a wound that never heals. These Families are honored and supported by our Country, in many ways. They are publicly honored, recognized their loss but their service to our country. 

   

What about the families whose military member is a

causality of PTSD? 

​

   CASUALTY - A person killed or injured in a war or accident:

                           a person or thing badly affected by an event or  situation
