TUCSON, Ariz. — While fireworks light up the skies on the Fourth of July, they can also bring up distressing memories for some veterans with PTSD.
"I love the Fourth of July. I love New Year's," said Terstegge."But it's the noises, the sounds, the explosions and stuff that bother me." Terstegee is a member of American Legion Post #36. He says there's a large community of veterans in Tucson with PTSD who don't often express how they're affected by these holiday celebrations.
