To all PTSD Forum readers:
We are in the process of producing a 30-minute program on combat stress and PTSD for the Pentagon Channel. If you're unfamiliar with us, we're a DoD broadcast operation, seen primarily on bases in the US and overseas. We're also on Dish Network and a handful of commercial cable operations. But the audience is primarily active duty military and military families.
I'm looking to do an on-camera interview with someone who served in Desert Storm, Iraq or Afghanistan, and who is willing to talk about their PTSD-causing experience and its effect on them afterwards. I'm willing to accept restrictions from that individual--not discussing certain areas, shooting the interview in shadow so they're not recognizeable, etc--if that's what it takes to get someone to be willing to do an interview.
The intent of the program is to show that PTSD is something with genuine long-term effects, and to provide those in the military audience who are reluctant to seek treatment some reasons to do so. The program will be on the air in October.
You can see some examples of our work on pentagonchannel.mil ... select View Programming, select Recon from the Channels list. The last 3 programs are available as VOD.
I can be contacted by phone, by e-mail via the forum, or by office or personal e-mail.
