The Vet, The President and Medical Marijuana Ret Commander Thomas W. Mundell has been US Army Gunner on Arrow Scout Hunter/Killer Assault Teams serving from Vietnam up through Afghanistan. He has seen and done plenty enough to give him nightmares. His training and internal emotional protections had made him unable to care for others or himself. It was during a bout with his PTSD that a loved one came to him and said, "Tom you are dying, try this". She gave him a marijuana cigarette to smoke and he finally rediscovered an ability to feel, to care for himself and others. Since that time this soldier who had felt cannabis was nothing more than an illegal drug has spoken to many other veterans and found that they too have found a medical treatment for their PTSD more effective than any of the pharmaceuticals they had been prescribed for their condition.

Host Jessica Thomas will talk with Thomas about his meetings with President Obama…
