Powerful and poignant Time video piece by ace videographer Natasha Del Toro about the veterans coming home from America’s two wars — widely hailed as heroes, and praised for their service and sacrifice — and why they are having such a tough time landing jobs.
“Iraq and Afghanistan veterans have fought in the toughest parts of the world,” says Paul Rieckhoff, executive director of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America. “When they return home, they shouldn’t have to fight for jobs too.” So watch the video. Even more important — hire a vet, or encourage someone who can to do so.
