Vietnam Vet Heals Through Making Toys
Defense Media Activity - Navy Production
Nov. 20, 2017 | 4:35
Navy veteran Bruce Empol served on a destroyer in Vietnam, where he saw violence and combat, resulting in him being diagnosed with PTSD. During his treatment, he was able to find a new passion for woodworking, and began making toys in his garage to help calm down and deal with his issues. Today, he gives his toys away for free to families of veterans. (U.S. Navy video by Austin Rooney/released)
