I was just turned on to the All Warrior Network. “The Ranger” is a brutally honest and deeply heartfelt story of U.S. Army Ranger, Chris Bemiss. Chris recounts his journey from the battlefield where he took part in the heroic rescue of Army Soldier Jessica Lynch and later was injured in a tragic accident, through the darkness of his struggle with PTS (Post-Traumatic Stress), and how living the Ranger Creed now drives his life in the memory of his fallen brothers. The film is directed by Emmy Award Winning Director, Robert Ham and is an All Warrior Network original documentary.
I will say that being a Ranger is much more than what many think it is. Ranger School is the easy part. Living it is the hard part.

That's a difficult show to watch if you suffer from PTSD. In short, it's real.

It's so profound. The journey back is the most misunderstood and painful. Painful not only to watch, but experience. This shows so much bravery and courage I wish some of the comrades I lost could have read this before we lost them to the abyss of PTSD.

I agree. I watched the whole thing. I really enjoyed it. I was in a unit that lived by the Ranger Creed. I thought it was awesome that he drew from that. I had a rough transition back the civilian. I remember coming back from OIF I and the Army really didn't care about PTSD. I was lucky to work my way through it. But as we all know we only learn to live with it. I don't think it is something you can completely heal from.

It's about helping each other along the way….maintain the battle-buddy, Ranger Creed, Warrior ethos, whatever you call….keep watching each other's six.
