Video Description
Today’s Urban Valor story brings us Marine Corps veteran Corporal Paul Parkhurst in this veteran interview. Paul takes us through his life before joining the Marines, while in the Marines, and the struggle of transitioning out of the military after witnessing traumatic experiences. Paul recalls a war story where he was shipped off to Kuwait in 2003 in preparation for the Invasion of Iraq, just 2 months after joining his fleet. As part of Task Force Tarawa, Paul battled the mental strain of sleep exhaustion and stressors of war intensified by the reminders of the price of battle as his convoy drove past dead bodies along the roads. He shares with us the psychological effects of leaving for a second deployment immediately following the first and highlighting the impact of being subjected to horrific circumstances. Paul's war story also reminds the audience that leaving the service -- which for him happened 9 days after returning home from Afghanistan -- does not mean leaving the stress and anxiety behind. Paul courageously speaks about the consequences of war and the necessity of seeking assistance regarding mental health, which could manifest into physical ailments. To those watching, this episode will be a reminder of the impact war has on combat veterans while in combat and even more so after coming home from combat. About Urban Valor: Welcome to Urban Valor, where we hear the stories of our veteran heroes in their own words. Within these vet interviews, you'll hear everything from combat stories, life stories pre/post military, military transition, and everything in between.
