a joy that was torn away from us.... while defending those without defense...
We are about re-covering One Soldier, One Sailor, One Airman, and One Marine at a time... We are about re-instilling joy in military families... often ripped apart by tour after tour of combat...
We are about deep sea fishing... hooking up and bringing fresh fish back to port for the bar-b-que...
We are about the rus
h of leaping out of airplanes at 14,000 feet... just for sh*ts and giggles... and a good photo op.. We are about long walks in the jungle... realizing that This Time.. It's just for Fun... there is no sniper on the hill... there is no enemy around the next bend along the Na Pali Coast.. nor in the mountains above Dillingham Airfield... It's all friendly territory, Marine... just beaches and beer.. We are about re-experiencing the flashbacks of combat... friendly paintball matches... sometimes we break down and cry as memories flood back in of loosing friends in Bagram, Afghanistan.... or Tikrit, Iraq... or Skopje, Macedonia... and other points unmentioned...
But... we get through it...
Our buddies put an arm around us.. and whisper something sweet like: "you gonna sit there and cry all day... or would you rather get up and ride the Harley to the next Poker Ride stop?"
At M'Ocean Therapy... we Are Combat Veterans... and We Are the Friends, Families, and Partners of Combat Veterans.. We understand... from First Hand Experience... We have laughed cried... fallen down, gotten drunk, pi**ed, broken mirrors, punched walls, lost relationships... and then made our decision... to Stand Up. We look to our countries, our elders, our friends, families, and founding fathers: "We hold these Truths, to be Self Evident... that All Men.. are Created Equal.. that they are Endowed by their Creator... with certain in-Alienable rights... that among these rights are Life, Liberty, and The ... in our terms... "re-discovery" of Happiness..." Happiness, Joy, Freedom, and the discovery that we can all THRIVE. We ask that you Join Us... as we surf, fish, dive, hike, camp, and jump from airplanes...
We ask that you join us as we clean up our local beaches...
We ask that you join us as we Protect our Natural Habitats.. It is what we have been trained to do.. and it is our Natural Calling. M'Ocean Therapy: Warriors Recovered
