Flanders Fields was formed by a group of veterans, combat veterans, purple heart recipients and amputees to serve other veterans in need. We have a primary focus on helping those (and their families) that have been affected by the VA fueled opioid epidemic, to provide services such as covering treatment costs, assist with transportation and placement to inpatient facilities, to facilitate job training and placement post-recovery, and to provide support to their families while they are getting the help they need. We aim to END veteran homelessness and suicide, and addiction is the driving factor behind 22 a day. We want to see that at zero, and we will attack this issue with the same unrelenting resolve, tenacity, and aggression with which we attack everything else.
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
