A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Life is tough for veterans, especially female veterans. They have much to deal with, much to heal from: combat, wounds, sexual harassment and assault, trauma, stress, chains of command, the VA. Now more than ever these veterans are facing their problems head on. In this inspiring new book, Kirsten Holmstedt, trusted chronicler of women soldiers and veterans, tells the stories of veterans struggling with the aftereffects of military service and rising above them. There are ups and downs as they heal from physical and psychological wounds, but they find their way home again by participating in sports like running and mountain climbing, by advocating on behalf of their fellow veterans, by calling on support networks of family, friends, dedicated professionals, and even complete strangers. These are stories of the resilience of the human spirit--for veterans seeking encouragement and for civilians seeking to understand as well as repay those who have paid much.
