lee jones was born in crockett, texas, september 24, 1942 and entered the u.s. army in 1963. he served in vietnam as squad leader in 1965 and 1966. he fought in multiple engagements in vietnam including the first battle of trang valley, a bally that was recounted in the best selling book as well as in a hollywood movie, "we were soldiers." we consider this to be the prime source of the ptsd that inflicted him for the rest of his life. he recently died of physical health problems connected to his service in vietnam. the recognition of his military service, he was awarded the infantry medal. upon leaving the military in 1966, he received a b.a. in bellingham, washington. he went on to serve veterans as a counselor at the seattle vietnam veterans center created with other veteran centers by the act of congress in 1979. lee directed the vet centers as a team leader. the first african-american to achieve this position in the western united states. by 1984 lee was increasingly aware of the culture and communication barriers that prevented many african-american veterans with ptsd fr
