And so you wonder, you know, do I keep going, you know, but you know, I mean, 30,000 vets have taken their lives since, since nine 11.

Yeah. Seven around, I think seven at seven or a little bit more than seven died in combat.

Yeah. It's times four. Yeah. It's times four. And one of the things that a lot of the vets have always told me, um, who have seen the play have said the play is really important because it reminds people what, like you said earlier, what the sacrifice was. Yeah, the cost. The cost. And they want people to know, but they can't say it. And so I think that's been the success of the play.

The success of the play has been that it depicts reality. It's a clear version. I mean, I've become friends with a lot of veteran therapists as well, equine therapists, canine therapists, and they've all said, you know, this play is so great because it's the only way I can explain to people what PTS is. It's the only way I can explain it. And so... how it keeps going.

Um, I mean, I was in Texas just last year and when I finished a play, um, I was talking gab with people in the theater and I saw this guy up and sitting down and he was just staring at me. This was just last year and Thanksgiving, uh, in Fredericksburg, Texas. And, uh, I just, I looked at him to the corner of my eye and thinking, um, I said, are you all right, man? I said, do you want to talk?

Because a lot of times they just want to talk to me privately. And he started walking down the theater, down the steps, and he just literally fell in my arms and broke down. And he had done like seven deployments. He was a Marine. And he told me all his buddies have taken their lives. He was the only one left. And so I never know what to say, really, besides.

Yeah. I told him not to give up. I told him to talk, find passion. And I tell him, you know, like I have a line in the letter, you know, you owe it to the guys who didn't come back to stay here. I mean, what do you say? I mean, any suggestions?
