In honor of Memorial Day, we turn our focus toward our returning vets. The experience of military service, and often combat, can lead to a difficult adjustment when one is returning home. Many of our service men and women are able to transition smoothly, while some find it more difficult - what are the best services out there to ease the transition, and what programs and policies have proven most effective in reintroducing our heroes to their families and communities. On the next Houston 8 - we celebrate those who sacrifice to keep us safe and secure.
