A war that should never have been fought is now officially over.
Despite the questionable motives of many governments to bomb and pillage Iraq, the troops are to be commended and welcomed home with great appreciation; not negation of their emotional, financial and physical needs as we owe them not only respect, but all the help we can give in support.
It is a sad truth that many vet's become homeless, as well as ignored in their plight to handle Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. If you know anyone who has been battling the adjustment to non-combat thinking and living, make sure to give compassion - at the very least.
Welcome Back, Troops!
