Support pours in for Fort Bragg family when Army didn't

We keep hearing how much the military is doing to help these soldiers and their families. So how is it this happened? It is because while they say one thing, they are doing another. Resilience Training is worse than a joke. It is harmful. They say they are taking care of families but most families don't know what to do. The Reilly family suffered along with thousands of other families.

FAYETTEVILLE (WTVD) -- The community is reaching out to help a woman fed up with how the military treated her husband suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.

Crystal Reilly, a mother of two, says she took her concerns about her husband's PTSD to the Army, and was virtually ignored.

Thursday, Reilly posted signs at her home saying that she was forced to sell all of her furniture because of how the Army treated her husband. A sign on the home read, "The Reilly family is done with the guinea pig Army system. Get us real help."

Reilly has been married to the Army for 15 years, but it became apparent in 2009 that her husband, Sgt. Charles Reilly, was starting to change.
