The story
In their words
-
Hear it at 14:50“I encourage any Veteran to pursue getting 100% disabled, at least for parking.”
-
Hear it at 15:07“I served for 20 years. I don't look down at somebody who served for four and got their back broken.”
-
Hear it at 17:41“I wish I would have spent more time with my family when they were younger.”
-
Hear it at 18:04“We miss those things because we’re overseas and then when we get back we get to hear about it, but we didn’t get to really witness it.”
-
Hear it at 18:17“They get used to you not being there and then it's not a big deal if you're not there anymore. So it hurts. It hurts a lot.”
-
Hear it at 37:58“I love being here in the Veteran community.”
