All- thought I would post here as in other post's about SHARE Program in Atlanta Georgia, whom also recommended this too! "Warrior Cane Project" by Grand Master Shuey of Cane Master's at http://www.canemasters.com/index.php?main_page=page&id=5&zenid=fa379ef7f74b2070b38aad28bf478eee or phone 1-800-422-2263!
Know those whom have spoken with GM Shuey, and he placed them on right track to "improve" balance issues more so than the US DVA, ever in fact did, even though the US DVA is the one that messed their "balance" up to begin with in more than just the "physical!" This veteran was also sup[posed to "attend" a three day seminar and could not "due" to teeth issues, believe it or not, that should have been "addressed" by both US Military and the US DVA- long ago! Furthermore, this veteran tried to get a local seminar in Gulf Coast VA System/VISN-16 set up through the Gulf Coast VA OEF/OIF Chief all to no avail! (see https://www.biloxi.va.gov/services/returning/index.asp )
Anyway, thought might "assist" other mobility challenged veterans if posted here.
For those interested in "nostalgia" (by gone era of "peace" Enforcement)I would recommend as well"The PR-24 Police Baton: A Training Manual for Law Enforcement Officers"- Paperback – 1984 by Richard R. Starrett (Author) at Amazon.com: https://www.amazon.com/PR-24-Police...00KBJXTI/ref=cm_cr_othr_d_product_top?ie=UTF8
This, veteran has "tried" to do things GM shuey recommended both in "conversation" and his books and "noticed" some improvement and oddly, a lot of what- per them- civilan "physical threapist's recommend as well....! Basically puts the US DVA to shame in all regards!
It is funny, that "civilians" can in fact go "bankrupt" or have "financial difficulties and are simply not "punished" as "veterans" are by having a whole bunch of their "Constitutional" Rights removed.....oh well that is for other's to write their local "law-makers" about if so desire.......
ALL: Hope this greatly assist's some "mobility" challenged veterans out there as not only improving "balance" gives back sense of "self-confidence" and "self-reliance" something the uS DVA does not in fact "promote" at all.... (as recently elected disabled veteran Congressman from SE Florida states "we must own our problems")
Kind of like "singer-songwriter" Taylor Swift song "Shake It Off" courtesy YouTube video "Taylor Swift - Shake It Off" at YouTube website:

PS: Perhaps other may have better luck with the OEF/OIF/Transition Management Office in their area's trying to "establish" some activity such as this or other's that some veterans organizations like Wounded Warrior Project do: Cooking Classes w. Publix, Horse-back Adventures, etc....??????? The US DVA OEF/OIF Program Office Locator for the United States of America is at website: https://www.oefoif.va.gov/map.asp
Let's all hope it is not as the band "Public Enemy" sings courtesy YouTube video "Public Enemy - 911 is a Joke (1990)" at YouTube website:
