I am a small piece of the LEGO Veteran Community. Many of which have served or are currently serving in any of the armed forces throughout the different countries around the world. The community also consists of family and friends of Veterans or Armed Servicemen/women, or those who choose to simply support. I'm a United States Marine (marines don't say former even though we're not currently serving) who loves and shares LEGO. 

Many Veterans and servicemen/women turn to LEGO, as do many when it comes to coping with stress or anxiety. We use the brick in many ways: some simply build sets, some create their own MOCs, and some simply just want to be around a positive community.
