For the March VetConnect Seminar at The War Memorial, join us as we welcome retired Army Sgt. Maj. Dave Laycock. 

The free seminar is planned for Thursday, March 12, from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.

Laycock served in the U.S. Army from 1969 until his retirement in 1993. During the Vietnam War, he served with the 101st Airborne Division, 158th Aviation Battalion Camp Evans. Assigned as the Aviation Battalion Safety Officer, his duties included, but were not limited to, aircraft damage investigations both combat and non-combat loss. In early December 1969, his unit was sent to a downed aircraft in the A Shau Valley due to combat fire. After landing, it came under enemy sniper and the officer in charge failed to ask for security before the unit landed. 

The results of that attack was the start of Laycock’s Post Traumatic Stress. Leaving Vietnam in October 1971, Laycock’s unit flew daily missions of insertion and extraction throughout its area of operations. For many years, he self medicated without support or assistance for what he had been through. In 1993, he went to the VA Detroit Healthcare System and was told he had not been in Vietnam and therefore did not have any problems.

Laycock’s journey without help went until November 2013. As he says, no one is ever cured from PTSD. Rather, you learn to adapt in different ways.
