Prepare to dive into an untold tale of
undiagnosted PTSD, as told by Ron Keas, a veteran
of the Navy during the early days of the Vietnam
War. Ron underwent rigorous training to brace
himself for the harsh realities of being captured
by the North Vietnamese. Yet, he never anticipated
the horrifying prospect of being imprisoned and
tortured by his own country.
This is a story that has remained
silent for 60 years, a story that unfolds aboard
an Aircraft Carrier, where Ron served as a combat
photographer. His experiences led to an
undiagnosed case of PTSD, which eventually
resulted in his discharge. But the Marine guards
weren't done with their torment, subjecting him to
a month-long ordeal in the Ship's brig.
Get ready for the release of this
compelling Zine publication, set to be available
soon. If you're intrigued and want to be among the
first to read Ron's story, don't hesitate to reach
out. Send an email and you'll be notified as soon
as the Zine is published.
