Unfortunately with war comes after effects. Many of our young service men and women suffer from physical injuries such as amputations and limited mobility. The goal of our dive company is to provide instruction to such heroes so they may enjoy the freedom of movement that scuba diving provides.
Far too many returning veterans, including Scott, suffer from posttraumatic stress disorder. This disorder can make everyday life difficult, and the need for something positive to focus on is great. These veterans need to feel at peace with their present and past. Although I am not a mental health provider, I consider my son's opinions to be valid. Diving puts him at peace and lets his mind rest.
