<p>An arrangement of some of Ed Kuglers memorabilia from Vietnam on display near a window in his office on Tuesday, October 25, in his home in Big Arm. Items include the last pair of boots he wore in the jungle, his compass, Ka-Bar combat knife. Peeking out from inside the boots is a toy bee. Bees are a symbol Kugler uses to explain what Post Traumatic Stress Disorder feels like, he says it is like bees inside his brain. (Brenda Ahearn/Daily Inter Lake)</p>
