Born from Loss.
Built on Brotherhood.
Reuniting After War began with one mother’s act of love and became a movement to ensure no combat veteran ever loses connection with those who truly understand.
A Mother’s Love, A Son’s Brothers
In June 2016, Mary Henry organized a reunion for 23 soldiers who served alongside her son Eric — men who survived three combat deployments together, including the 2009 Battle of COP Keating, where eight of their brothers were killed in action.
The reunion wasn’t planned to become a nonprofit. It was a mother doing what mothers do — taking care of her son’s people. But the response changed everything.
— SFC Mike Bramstedt
Reuniting After War became an official 501(c)(3) nonprofit in 2017. Today, we host 3+ fully funded reunions per year for combat veterans across every branch of service.
Our Mission
To facilitate fully funded reunions that restore the bonds formed in combat — because the connections forged in war are the same ones that save lives in peacetime.
Every cost covered — travel, lodging, meals, programming. No veteran is left behind for financial reasons.
We bring together the exact unit — people who shared the exact same experiences, deployments, and losses.
Priority goes to units who experienced combat loss — because those bonds of shared grief are the most powerful and the most fragile.
