Joshua Kors discusses his article for the Nation “How Specialist Town Lost His Benefits,” about a decorated soldier who has been thrown in the garbage can by the government he served, the paper-thin “personality disorder” excuse that has been used to deny 22,500 disabled soldiers their benefits in the last six years (after lying to them of course) and how much money the DoD will save.

Mr. Kors was an excellent reasource for me and proving my case to my chain of command proving that I do not have a borderline personality disorder. In his first article it mentioned a army psychologist by the name of CPT Brady. Well by the time I saw this person he had been promoted to Major. I do not know why he became a psychologist he made no attempted to help me deal with my combat stress or depression. In matter fact Major Brady made my symptoms worse. Major Brady was in Mr. Kors first article as one of his patients like my self was missed diagnosised. There is a major flaw in the military mental health system and how people with real issue treated. The military is knowing and willing mistreating it soldiers. I know Mr. Kors has nevered served in the military but he is a true patriot and I am very thankfull for his courage to stand up and help us.
