Great article about a great man. You deserve the "red" jelly beans. Wonderful thing you are doing, Dred.

You're a lucky man, must be awesome to have that many guitars going in a room, and everybody gets a chance to be a rock star, a whole roomfull of lucky people there. I tire of lonely playing sometimes, wonder what it's all for but I still do it, because it's healing. I think that just clicked for me this year.

Thanks for all your kind comments, folks.

The success of this program is really a testament to all the quality volunteers that keep it going week after week for ten years now. Our 76th and 77th students just graduated, a husband and wife, both Vets of Iraq and Afghanistan. He has PTSD, and told me learning the guitar has helped him deal with it in a big way.

I value the international nature of LTG. I have probably violated several copyright laws or treaties but I have downloaded the video and shared it via Dropbox. Hopefully that will be visible across international borders. I will take it down in a few days so grab it now.

It goes without saying that Mark is doing a wonderful job. Thanks.

Maybe it's time to join or start a chapter of Guitars 4 Vets in your area...
