Entangle
by Marie-Louise Jones
After serving for eleven years in the Royal Australian Navy, Marie-Louise Jones was diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). While serving in the First Gulf War, she experienced difficulties with the antagonistic attitudes from her male co-workers. Entangle seeks to create a conversation of awareness of PTSD in female veterans, and, hopefully, help others that have experienced this to seek help and support.
