Combat-related injuries compound stuggles of soldiers returning from war

A report for CNN by Alex Quade explores the struggles of veterans suffering with combat-related health issues as they try to reintegrate into civilian life following service in Iraq and Afghanistan.  "War veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder and traumatic brain injury and their families say military commanders, policy-makers, health care providers, and communities need to take more steps to help make their transition into the civilian community seamless." Army Chief of Staff Gen. George W. Casey recently acknowledged that the military is "too bureaucratic" when it comes to the handling and reintegration of its war veterans.
