    One of the absolute best interviews I’ve watched. Ex-Army myself (REME) and Craig is spot on. When you leave you’re out, no one cares. The only ones who care are your loved ones and the men and women you served with. The institution washes its hands of you. From this interview with Craig, he’s lost his sense of belonging. There needs to be something that ex-forces can sign-up to and give that sense of belonging. Keep well Craig

    Mike I am a Veteran and have been involved with 2 Forces Charities and I am very disillusioned by them both, I feel that a lot of what is collected by these charities from the public is not used by these charities to pay for things that are important and that which is collected used to pay people who shouldn't be taking a wage from them because of pensions they are on from HM Forces for Senior ranks who are getting a double wage just to be a figurehead for the charities. In my time working for them I was a volunteer and gave my time freely. However I watched people take monies from the charity for storing a trailer on a driveway and charged them £1500 for it this person was a veteran. The Charity has closed hostels and places that support veterans and spent millions in rebranding in the past few years when this money should of gone to support our men and women who need it's help I and a number of friends have left this charity all disillusioned at the way it is being run and the total lack of knowledge of what Veterans are desperately in need of for help. I loved the frankness of this interview and hope that veterans start to take a stand for what is supposed to be to help them in the future. The MoD also needs to start realising that what these people have been through is a ticking time bomb and that mental health needs to be dealt with in a far far greater depth than it is even now. I in my Charity work have come across many people from all 3 Services that need help on a greater level than they all have had to date. I am helping a wife of a serviceman who due to his service life has caused his family to fear him and all that the Army has done is hide the fact I could go on and on but the System in the MoD and the Forces Charities needs to change greatly to support our Veterans

    My mate was a psychologist in Queensland dealing with mainly Vietnam vets. He saw the need for a place for them to go to for some peace. He brought a bush block of around 200 acres and built a camp out of old rail coaches etc. He died a few years ago but saved many with his treatment and service to the veterans. Craig is doing the same great work.

    It's your nervous system the glands above your kidneys release cortosal stress hormone and it travel to your pictorial and pineal gland that is what sends out hormones and messages effects your senses. The Egyptian called it eye of Ra 3rd eye. Your brain gets flooded with things like dopamine and it gets where your body brain gets over heated and you get high white blood count cause your brains stem cell are mis signaling cause it's being attacked confused and it kills your grey matter which is memory and the hallucinations is your pinneal gland sending your eyes messages so memories or nightmares that seem very real , people can smell things see thing hear voices. They now think it can be autoimmune problems so get your hormones checked out and you can get uncsncerous lumps on your glands that will effect it. And they are now doing new treatments with stem cell. Hope you get the right treatment to help you.

That last 2 minutes Dodge when you said “you’re a super hero” even though Craig doesn’t want to hear it, I was like YES, YES! Because we all think Craig is one and I am so glad you repeated it, thank you, thank you 🙏🏼. I am a Brit living in the states and the Shawn Ryan show is also amazing, the host (Shawn, former Seal and CIA) had a psychedelic experience and I was wondering if Craig has ever thought about doing that to help with the voices in his head? Keep up the great work Dodge, and I am hoping one day Craig can come back on the show. Cheers guys.

Hung himself from a tree in his local woods. Hearing Craig say he could’ve been in the same position really put it all in perspective. When your out you are out, the institution washes its hands of you, with no ragard to what you have seen and done in the name of your country.

Atje janë të dhunuar seksualisht mbi 20.000 persona mbi 95% femra nga: Paramilitar, Polic e Militarë Serrb dhe të vrarë mbi 15.000 persona, nga mosha dyjavëshe e deri 90 vjeq, nga ta mbi 1300 fëmij dhe Serbia ende nuk u ndëshkua nga askush për gjithë ato krime lufte, që Serrbia i ka bërë në Kosovë, që një e paske parë vet me sy tuaj, e ndoshta edhe shumë tjera për të cilat do të flasësh më vonë. Unë shumë të Falënderoj për krejt atë qka ke bërë për Kosovën dhe të tjerët dhe shpresoj se Organet Ndërkombëtare të drejtësisë, një ditë do ta ndëshkojnë Serrbinë për krejt dëmet: Njerëzore dhe Mareriale që ua ka bërë, krejt popujve të ish Jugosllavisë.

    Man, this video hits hard. I’ve never wanted to hug a dude more than Craig. Just the sadness in his voice makes me think of his family and the stuff that he’s been through. I hope that he knows that people around the world are there to support him and other men like him. Keep your head up mate

    Its the Independent Republik Kosovo, but it’s Kosova to Albanians, and before that, Dardania🇦🇱 But I think you already know that. No one needs your input on how to pronounce things.They need you to take responsibility for what Serbians did. This man witnessed it, and all you have to say is some stoopid sht like you did.

The way these people get used up by the government and spat out is disgusting. More (something) needs to be done to support them financially and mentally. I just hope Craig goes on in life and enjoys the good things he has by his side now. Good luck and thank you!!

I hope this man find peace. A nod to Dodge, you handled the interview with such care mate. Thank you 🙏🏻
