Minnesota has another military person who is AWOL (a reservist, who already did a long tour). (and he does have legal and vet. support and help).
Many of you who know someone in the military, or who works with those in the military and I'd hope they know that awol and refusing to go back is a much better option than suicide, (or going back to Iraq/Afganistan)
Info for lawyers and others to helps military person who goes AWOL or thinking about it.
