What marvelous news that this group is striving to influence health care. With a large proportion of Iraq and Afghan veterans experiencing Post Traumatic Stress, I cannot think of a discipline better postured to help with this effort. Gen Rick Shinseki, the newly appointed head of the Veterans Administration is likely to be open to such an idea. He once was a West Point classmate before he "decided" to graduate in the class of 1965; so let me know if I can help. Blessings and Peace. Peter Kufeke.

Thank you Peter for your encouraging reply. The Spiritual Dirction Program I am directing is located in a Rehab. Hospital and we are expecting to have military wounded in Irag or Afghan soon. Curently the students in the Program are local clergy, chaplains, counselors and lay ministers. The patients and family members are the directees. The engery for this is very high and I am grateful for the grace and opportunity to found this Program in Charlotte, NC. I would like to hear more from you, Bryna
