Every month on the second Monday of the month, my uncle's VFW post goes to the local VA hospital to help run bingo for the veterans. I got into going at 15, and have gone every month I could since. Even days when my uncle doesn't go, and have become known amongst the veterans by name.
It is also here where I spend much of my days off, listening to the stories and just being there for them, and thus far I have saved 4 from suicide and helped one come to terms with the death of his life long love.
