When I Came Home

One thought on “When I Came Home”

1. I had the opportunity to tend bar at the local VFW (Veterans of Foreign War) and learned a lot about men, women & families that have served in the military. It became clear to me how deep the physical and emotional scars are on the men & women who have gone to war. You can also see that these wounds don’t just affect the person that served, but also their friends and family. I have seen with my own eyes women, children, & even grandchildren dealing with hardships because they had a family member that served our country. Changes need to be made, and changes start with actions. We need to get new people into the political forum that can bring fresh ideas to the table. We need politicians that really want to do what is best for the people that they are representing.
