Teal Star Family

The Boyers

What is a Teal Star Family?

• The United States has categorized military families into two groups, the Blue Star  Family ,which represents those whose family member is serving our Country , one Star for each family member serving. A blue star banner is hung proudly for all to see.

• The Gold Star is given to the families of  those KIA,  service members Killed in Action. This is the star that NO family wants, the ultimate sacrifice, a wound that never heals. These Families are honored and supported by our Country, in many ways. They are publicly honored, recognized for not only their loss but their service to our country. 

What about the families whose military member is a

causality of PTSD? 

   CAUSALITY - A person killed or injured in a war or accident:

                           a person or thing badly affected by an event or                                     situation 

We ask you to reflect on how you feel when reading each of these quotes.

  " My son committed suicide after serving our country"

or 

"My son was a causality of PTSD. "
