It's a whole new world, a whole new way of thinking. Then they get back home and are expected to be incorporated back into society with no problems and act like nothing happened. Inside their heads though, the experiences continues to appear in their minds and then they just have troubles dealing with their experience and the experiences of being back in society.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01963315621467769698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1184938510789747110.post-44609721116977143512015-10-21T08:09:52.329-07:002015-10-21T08:09:52.329-07:00Lets make our veteran get to feel just as free as ...Lets make our veteran get to feel just as free as we do living in this country.

I think it is key to talk to veteran. This is because it will let them get help from another person instead of keeping it to their selves since that makes it worse.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13035904055888078753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1184938510789747110.post-6716942100079702732015-10-21T07:55:34.062-07:002015-10-21T07:55:34.062-07:00I completely agree with his statement about when s...I completely agree with his statement about when soldiers come home and how to approach them.
