About Downrange Warriors
Published by Downrange Warriors on their own website. Quoted here in full as they wrote it.
ABOUT US
We believe once a warrior, always a WARRIOR, and you are simply DOWNRANGE in a different kind of mine field.
ALWAYS WARRIORS
You were trained how to respond to threats in the military and you can use those same skills to respond to life’s new experience of civilian life. We further believe that often the real cause of PTS is an underlying Moral Wound. A Moral Wound is being angry at God or whoever you believe is in charge of this universe. How could He let such unfair and horrible things happen? Maybe you don’t want anything to do with such a God. We have been there as well. Good news is there is a path to work your way through that too.
YOU ARE STILL FIGHTING
The battle continues against an unseen enemy who is attacking our mind and spirit. The war we fight is not against flesh and blood. And, in too many cases, the enemy is winning. Trauma happens to us veterans during combat, serving those who were in combat or being a veteran spouse. Too often, that trauma is compounded by a series of poor decisions upon returning home. It is as if this combat trauma has reduced our spiritual defense systems and left us vulnerable to a myriad of even more dangerous life choices that may lead to addiction, homelessness or even suicide.
WHAT YOU MISS
BROTHERHOOD
ADRENALINE RUSH
EXCITEMENT
BELONGING
CAMARADERIE
BROTHERHOOD / ADRENALINE RUSH / EXCITEMENT / BELONGING / CAMARADERIE /
Combat can lead to guilt, excitement, missing the brotherhood, not fitting in and searching for a replacement. We have experienced the addiction to adrenaline. Managing those desires is a key to starting the road to recovery.
Maybe you really have developed a fear of living civilian life and just need a few coping tools to take the offense again. A black dog living in a white dog world can take some training. Either way we have ways of helping you along the path to total and victorious healing. We don’t believe in holding any ground. We are constantly taking ground from the enemy…keeping them on their heels…making them defend…making them afraid of us. We don’t fear the storm, we and our God are the storm.
Lastly, when returning to civilian life, we lose our military identity and have to find our new place in civilian society. That can be an amazingly difficult and painful experience. We’ve learned answers for that as well. Our team can also give you tools for your tool belt that create a new mission for the continuation of your training and productive past.
OUR PROVEN PATH
We provide a path to personal healing.
It can be done. We have done it.
Our write-up
Downrange Warriors is in our directory because the military community keeps recommending it. What you see above is their own description, quoted from their site. We have not yet added our own write-up — the programs, eligibility and military fit that we check ourselves — and we would rather leave that blank than guess at it.
In the meantime, their official site is the authority: www.downrangewarriors.org

Are you Downrange Warriors?
This page was written about you, not by you. We built it because the people we serve were already looking for you and deserved a straight answer about what you do. If anything here is wrong, out of date, or puts it badly, we would rather hear it from you than leave it up.
Claiming it gives you an account here and a route to request changes — corrections, new programs, updated events. Those requests are handled by Meridian Tech, our partner, under their subscription service. You are not editing this page yourself, and we would rather say that plainly now than have you find out after you sign up.
“Claim this page” opens a checkout on milconnect.com, where you set up your organization's account. Being listed here is free, and staying listed is free. Meridian Tech — the company that also builds and runs MILCONNECT.AI — provides the account and the update service, and the AI Workspace is their paid product. We are telling you about a commercial relationship before you act on it rather than after, because you are a nonprofit being asked to spend money and you deserve to see the whole shape of it first. If anything on this page is simply wrong, email us and we will fix it for free; that never requires a subscription.
This page is maintained by MILCONNECT.AI and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or authored by Downrange Warriors. It is a directory entry compiled from community recommendations. We do not rate, rank or endorse anything in this directory, and being listed here is not a recommendation — clinical or otherwise. We are not a medical provider and cannot tell you whether a program is right for you. Check eligibility, cost and current status with the organization directly before you rely on it.
