He has given his personal cell number to several veterans with PTSD that he met on the campaign trail during his senate run. Here is a post from a veteran with PTSD who had attempted suicide sharing a voicemail (audio) that he had left her.

It just seems there were some threads I saw yesterday that aren't there anymore. I see a few removed posts; maybe it has to do with that. Looks like there are more now.

This is a very busy forum. It's very easy for threads to get lost.
