    I am an Army OIF combat veteran working on my doctoral degree to become a clinical psychologist, and I would like to ask for your help as I complete a research project in support of service members returning from the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.

    I am conducting a research study to understand the impact of combat deployment on a variety of behavioral health outcomes, and I am trying to reach as many service members and veterans as I can over the internet. I am currently recruiting service members and veterans who have deployed in support of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan to participate in my study, and I would like to inquire if you would be willing to post information about my study on your website.

    This study is completely anonymous, and I believe it may be of significant interest to many of the visitors to your website. This study has been reviewed and approved by the Office of Research Compliance at the University at Albany – State University of New York.

    For more information, please see my study website. I realize you may only want to post a portion of the information and I would be more than willing to discuss editing or changing content at your request. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or for additional information, and I hope you will consider providing assistance.

    I look forward to hearing back from you soon.

    Very Respectfully,
