Veterans Coming Home is an innovative cross-platform public media
campaign that bridges America’s military-civilian divide by telling
stories, challenging stereotypes and exploring how the values of service
and citizenship are powerful connectors for all Americans. A critical piece of that process is opening up the lines of
communication between veterans and civilians about the roles citizenship
and service play in our civic life. ~http://veteranscominghome.org/
I have forgotten how good PBS is. VETERANS COMING HOME is a Great series to help begin to understand what Veterans are experiencing as they return home. I cannot find the newest episode that was on earlier - "Bridging The Civilian/Military Divide"
Duration: 0:28:18
Description: Is there a divide between civilians and veterans? What can we do to build communities that welcome veterans beyond simply, "thank you for your service." The discussion goes beyond stereotypes and broadens our understanding of what it means to serve.

One guy said that he does not think that Civilians being "Aware" is the right way to approach the divide between the civilians and veterans - the only way is through Relationships!
I agree, without relationships there can be no real awareness - you can try but you have no investment until there is a relationship - no real ability to have empathy/understanding for one another without RELATIONSHIPS. This applies to civilians and veterans and to so many other divides that are splitting the world into so many fragments.
The end of the show was the best part -
showing how we can make a
difference to others by serving.
United we Stand.
MUST WATCH - "Bridging The Civilian/Military Divide" will post as soon as I find link.
Meanwhile Watch the series of shows here.
