PTSD, Depression, and OSI are not something that define me. I am retired Corporal Jon A.
Archambault (GSC-EXP) and after serving more than 11 years in the regular Canadian Armed Forces and
4 years in Law Enforcement, I started journaling about how my illnesses were affecting my daily life. As I
wrote, I also realized that the stigma around mental illness was extremely present within the uniform
and in society; I wrote Operation: Wired differently as a way to educate society about the demons that
are brought back home after seeing horrible things that most of society could not imagine. Operation:
Wired Differently also allows me to shine a light on invisible injuries and the men and women who battle
them daily.
