What Veterans Say

“When I tell you an unexplainable enjoyment came over me. I almost cried — I haven’t seen some of these dudes in almost 20 years. I felt understood again, I felt amongst my people.”

“There are some bonds that time can’t touch. This past weekend, thanks to Reuniting After War, I got to sit down, share stories, and reconnect with brothers I haven’t seen in 15 years. Thank you, RAW, for giving us a place to gather, heal, and move forward.”

“The reunion was more beneficial than anything the VA can do with years of counseling.”

“I needed this. It was like we never left each other.”

“Men that haven't talked for 10 years now speak every week.”

“RAW is incredibly unique in the fact that it brings together a group of guys that have shared the same experiences in the same places at the same time. Everyone already knows everyone and we just pick up where we left off… What Mary has created has undoubtedly saved lives.”

“We clicked together like the old times instantly… Our bonds of brotherhood are stronger now than they ever were. This organization is a real blessing.”

“The reunion was a deeply meaningful and therapeutic experience, allowing us to share stories, reflect on our journeys, and support one another in ways that only fellow veterans can understand.”

“Regardless of time spent apart, we instantly fell back into that brotherhood as if a day had not passed.”

“Reuniting After War put me in touch with brothers I go back 22+ years with. It was an amazing experience and I really enjoyed picking right up where we left off.”

“It felt like we never skipped a moment… RAW helped fill a spot in us that we had been missing for quite some time.”

“A big shout out to Ms. Mary!! I cannot say thank you enough. I don't think any of us knew how much we needed this reunion. You and your organization provided the perfect atmosphere for us to reconnect, laugh and have so much fun. Thank you a million times over!”

“Mary thank you for having us. You have such an amazing heart and I'm grateful for everything you done for us and every vet in the past and every vet in the future.”
