A Veteran's War Experience

105 Words1 Page

A veteran’s war experience is very different for each and every person. The things that they see and experience is very different than our society will ever understand. Veterans may return and be diagnosed with PTSD, depression, some psychological disorder etc. This not only effects the veteran but also the family. The family may not have that special connection that they had before and can’t get through to him or her. The veteran may be closed off or not want to talk about the experience which may lessen the relationship between the family. One’s war experience effects not just the veteran but also their family.
