Review for Warrior Bonfire Program, Vicksburg, MS, USA
I have just spent the last 5 days with fellow purple heart veterans gathering to spend some quality time together. To be able to meet and bond with those who understand one another like most people cannot. Arriving at the retreat, I was in a rough place with what can only be explained as piled under many negative things going on in my life. I have a fantastic wife and family but only other combat vets can understand these times and listen and talk about it. I made lifelong friends and came away able to breath and look up again. Warrior Bonfire is without question life changing and life saving. The Warrior Bonfire Program has it all figured out. I pray this program gets the support it needs to continue to serve many more veterans in need.
Review for Warrior Bonfire Program, Vicksburg, MS, USA
I seldom like to spend time with people I don't know. A friend of mine recommended I investigate the opportunities available through Warrior Bonfire. So I went online and looked into it. After seeing some of the reviews, I decided to step out of my comfort zone and give it a shot. From the moment I applied to participate in the program, the people at Warrior Bonfire (Helen & Alaina) were there every step of the way. Every question answered with fantastic communications. The support throughout the entire process was top notch. Once I arrived at the location for our event, I met 5 fellow veterans that were also Purple Heart recipients. All dealing with things from the past, just as I. I will say from the introductions to the events it was non stop activity in an environment of like minded veterans. There was time to talk and reflect, be respectful and support one another. I have never been a part of anything so effective at clearing my head and helping everyone with the needed healing you cannot get from people who haven't been there. Its like I can breath again. Jared & Tim are the best, they lead the way for us and had our 6 the entire time. We made friends for life. I highly recommend Warrior Bonfire to every Purple Heart Veteran. J.R.
