Instead of allowing the situation to dictate his life, Curtis struck out and took control making him an hero all over again by winning a seven year fight with the VA Administration in obtaining his benefits rights, been awarded his entire past financial payments, and help others in the same situation. Curtis is now an advocate for Veteran’s and an author. His second book, A Warrior Married to His Wife and PTSD. It is his deep sense of loyalty and camaraderie that continues to exist even though his days in uniform are finished that keep him on track and allow him to carry on his newest mission, inspiring and helping others. Curtis knows far too many Veteran’s come home to nothing and are soon forgotten. It is his hope to help as many of his former battle buddies during their struggle to find meaning and purpose in the real world as they adjust to a normal life.
