Military OneSource, an agency created by the Department of Defense to offer support to current and former members of the armed services, as well as to their families, commissioned this comic sent to recent veterans.  In the story, three Iraq War vets deal with paranoia, drug abuse, and depression, and are guided to resources that can help with reintegration.
