PTSD AWARENESS MONTH! 🙏🏼 -Always Check On Your Battle Buddies 🇺🇲🪖

💚 June is PTSD Awareness Month 💚

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) affects millions of Americans, including many Veterans, Service Members, First Responders, and their families. While the wounds may not always be visible, they are real—and no one should face them alone.

This month, we encourage everyone to learn more about PTSD, reduce the stigma surrounding mental health, and support those who may be struggling. Seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.

*Know the difference* 🇺🇲🪖🫡

Some holidays celebrate freedom.
Some honor sacrifice.
Some recognize service.

Know the difference. 🇺🇸

🔹 Armed Forces Day — Honoring those currently serving
🔹 Memorial Day — Honoring those who gave their lives in service
🔹 Veterans Day — Honoring all who served

The Marine Corps League proudly remembers, honors, and supports all who wear — and have worn — the uniform of our nation.

Semper Fidelis.
