VETERANS chaplain Deacon Gary Stone says he is providing pastoral support to hundreds of Australian ex-soldiers experiencing deep pain and anguish as the Taliban seizes control of Afghanistan. Deacon Stone founder of the Veterans Care Association in the Brisbane archdiocese says he has been inundated by calls from veterans in distress as they watch the dramatic TV coverage of the fall of the capital Kabul. “All of them are grieving for the people of Afghanistan,” he said. “When they were over there our soldiers saw ordinary people caught up in this terrible conflict. And so they grieve for them (and what could now unfold).”
