Veterans: Do they need your support?

Veteran: It's never to late to heal your way home

Although the recent attention has been placed on military personnel and veterans from the current conflicts, there are still many veterans from previous wars that have yet to deal with their emotional and physical traumas. The cultural standards forced these veterans to ignore their pain and pigeonhole their lives. However, in the years and sometime decades since their service, they have started to loose their ability to bury the pain. Horses and Heroes will be particularly helpful for theses veterans. With television's ability to reach into the privacy of individual homes, it will breakdown the walls that have kept them isolated and prove to them that they are the rule not the exception. It will give them permission to seek the help they need to heal the rest of the way home.

Horses and Heroes is highly relevant not only to military personnel, veterans, and those who care about them, but also to anyone who has experience a traumatic event in their lives. Additionally, alternative healing methods, such as Equine Therapy, have proven their effectiveness in healing both physical and emotional challenges. Yet there is very little information about the programs available through traditional venues.

Horses and Heroes ability to tell the personal stories of healing without censorship, while supporting the veterans as they find their way back is what makes it unique and without equal. Therefore it is very likely to again an audience that will include military personnel, veterans, and civilians.

Calling all military personnel, veterans, their families and those who support them

 

Would you please like and share our Facebook page.  It is our goal to go into production for the pilot in early Fall.  I would like to be able to take the numbers to the networks and prove that there is not only a need, but also an interest in a series that shows military personnel, veterans, and their families as people not just disposable parts of the war machine.

This is NOT a reality show.  It is a scripted series that intertwines real life stories with a fictional international conspiracy.

Logline: Helping others heals our own wounds.

Not all scars show.  Not all wounds heal.
        Author unknown,

Missing limbs can be replaced by the miracle of modern medicine and technology. They are functional, but not the same. But what of the pain that is unseen yet goes soul deep? These are the wounds that bind us to the past. Some use it as an excuse to hurt others. Some hurt themselves. Yet there are the few who channel their pain into helping others as a way of healing themselves or to pay penance for the harm they caused.

Facing their own demons, veterans and civilians come together to actively make a difference through legal, medical and logistics systems, to help active duty, reserves, and retired military personnel, veterans and their dependents. Their motto is:  “We've got your back”

What if, in their dedication to help, the founders of Operation Home Base stumble upon an international cover up; putting a target on their backs? Do they shrink in fear or do they “damn the torpedoes” to face the challenge with a “gung-ho” mentality?

Operation Home Base: Combing MASH and The Waltons with NCIS

Operation Home Base
We've got your back.
Theresa Chaze
One of The Red Cross’s functions is passing messages to and from military personnel. However, they are limited to the passive role of sharing information. What if there was an organization that could do more? Facing their own demons, veterans and civilians come together to actively make a difference with legal, medical and logistics help for military personnel, veterans and their dependents? Their motto is “we've got your back.”. What if in their dedication to help, founders of Operation Home Base stumbled upon an international cover up, which puts a target on their own backs? Do they shrink away in fear or do they damn the torpedoes and face the challenge with a Gung-Ho mentality?

A medic in Nam, Martin Flying Crow returned home only to find the war followed him. By helping others, he was able to quiet the ghosts in his head. He gained national attention and the friendship of retired Lieutenant Colonel Elaine Reynolds after he talked a Marine out of committing suicide. Together they pulled enough resources together to achieve a non-profit status and were able to move Operation Home Base from Martin's garage into a small office building.

The organization once again gained national attention when they used their connections both in and out of the military to investigate the disappearance of PFC Hank Bogley and his squad. When they start to unravel the lies and misinformation, they suddenly become the targets of a national smear campaign. Although their personal and professional motives are brought into question, the board refuses to back down.

Unable to deter them, their lead detractor, Valhalla does an about face and offers to support them with endless financial, political, and logistic support. There is one catch. Operation Home Base must accept their representative as the new head of their organization. Valhalla chooses a man who knows Martin's secrets. He knows because the same ghosts haunt him. Is he the distraction to keep Martin busy, while they use the money, influence and access to classified information to destroy Operation Home Base from the inside out?

Operation Home Base combines MASH and The Waltons with NCIS to create a family of man drama about forgiveness and second chances. From the senseless murder of a therapy dog to two teens stealing a tank to a Native American's family having to fight for their loved one's last wishes to be honored, Operation Home Base intertwines real life situations with a fictional international conspiracy. From World War II to the current conflict, the stories will show military personnel and veterans as real people, not just disposable parts of the war machine. Its tagline is helping others heals our own wounds.
