Memorial Day honors the sacrifices of our nation's military. Before heading out to enjoy the long weekend, please support the men and women who served our country.
'When I Came Home' documents Iraq War veteran Herold Noel's fight for survival after returning from Iraq. Noel, who suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder and lives out of his car in Brooklyn, NY, is one of many who suffer from terrible living conditions. The film gives rise to a wider issue in America. More specifically, an issue of homeless U.S. military veterans who have to fight to receive the benefits promised to them by their government.
We come away from this film with poignant insights that beg important questions about the expectations we level at the military, and how we pay them in return (or don't) for making good on those expectation. Although many take staunch positions for or against war -- regardless of whether or not we actually engage in war, the military still must be prepared to protect us.
