He suffered from combat stress and was traumatized by scenes of death and destruction. Having served his country, Howard Dillaman was unable to live a normal life.

One night in his darkest hour, however, he picked up a Gideons' Bible and made a promise to God, which started him on his road to healing and redemption.
