Robert A. Cagle served, on active duty, in the United States Army from 1964 to 1967. He was with the First Infantry Division in Viet Nam 1965-66. His war experiences brought about Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, “PTSD,” which he fought with for 40 years. He is a Registered Respiratory Care Practitioner in metro-Atlanta, husband, father and grandfather.
Robert has worked closely with Dr. Edward Tick for the past seven years, returning twice to Viet Nam and journeying twice to Greece so that he and his family could heal from the wounds of war.
He was encouraged to write poetry about his experiences and found this to be an outlet he never expected. It has allowed him to envision experiences and express them, and has given him an open invitation to tell his story even if no one else saw it.
