Article on soapmaking vet

A lovely article about an Afghanistan war vet who says soaping saved him - fair warning, there's a bit of salty language.

The title should say ''vet" not "bet" lol. I'm on my phone and well. Clumsy thumbs.

Excellent article, it is amazing how climbing out of the abyss changes people forever, how one views the world and the people in it. Enjoy the suck... Seems to speak volumes for what he did and saw. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for sharing! I don't know what else to say, my son spent a yr in Iraq and will be paying for it the rest of his life. Thank God this man was able to bring some good out of it. Bless him!

Bless him - what a great concept.

His soap intrigues me. It looks like a good M&P with exfoliating coconut flakes? I'd like to try it, it sounds wonderful.

Fascinating! We've all had different paths lead us to soapmaking, probably few of them as harrowing as his. I love the idea of giving soap away to the homeless. It's inspiring that after all he's been through, he still thinks of others. Good man, big heart.
