On Friday, President Barack Obama was at Fort Bliss, Texas, where he spoke to troops and met with military families, including some who lost loved ones in Afghanistan.
As that war winds down, the president is ordering additional help for those with invisible battle scars. As a rash of suicides has shown, mental injuries can be just as deadly as a roadside bomb.
Surrounded by soldiers in camouflage fatigues, Obama recalled his last visit to Fort Bliss, exactly two years earlier. That was the day he announced a formal end to combat operations in Iraq.
We are now seeing more deaths among our service members and veterans than we were seeing on the battlefield in Iraq and Afghanistan.
"It was a chance for me to say, on behalf of the American people, to you and all who served there, welcome home, and congratulations on a job well done," Obama said.
being a veteran in the system wonder if defense spending hikes will support the Pres. proposal if they get in?
i know that the Pres. reduction does not impact veteran's care. but they've lied about everything else why trust them on this or anything the claim in the last couple of months of their waning chances to steal of lies and prejudicial disinfranchisement, voter blocking?
the right has shortchanged to military for years can you say Walter Reed? inferior equipment vest?

contractor cronyism by right wing? is that where they got the idea to accuse the Pres. of cronyism? he who knows not suspects none, but he who thinks he knows blows the horn like a marching band.
