Seeing a lot of these type of posts in my various social media feeds.
What is RP's thoughts?
Should a vet be posting this kind of sign?
Is it fair to imply to your neighbors to not do a decades old tradition because you have PTSD?
How does this kind of activity reflect on the veteran population?

Earlier today, my mom shared this picture on Facebook which was originally posted on the Military with PTSD Facebook page. Of course, my family knows about and understands the issues I have around this holiday. Not only is it the loud noises of the fireworks but also the smell of the black powder can trigger me. I'm okay as long as I know I'm somewhere that fireworks are being used and where they are being launched from. It's when I don't know, that I have issues.
So here is my question to the RP community. What are some ways you are able to continue to enjoy the holiday weekend with your friends and family while dealing with reactions we might face because of the fireworks.
