Does America Have a Poor History of Looking After Its Veterans?

This documentary examines how well America cares for the soldiers it sends to war, following wounded veterans through loss, pain and the long road to recovery. It centres on men like Walt Fricke, whose life was changed forever by injuries sustained in combat, and who return to a country often unprepared to support them. The film weighs the gap between the nation's gratitude and the help it actually provides. Honest and moving, it gives voice to those left to carry the cost. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
