Drugs/Alcohol/Tobacco: Reference or Discussion

"Dad is always a little different when he comes back from deployments because he has to get used to America again," says Allison. Her brother Matt adds, "He's always overjoyed that he's in the States where no one is trying to shoot at him." In candid and moving interviews, children of American and Canadian military personnel who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan describe their experiences. The interviews touch on subjects such as the children's worries, what it is like when a parent returns from combat, and whether the children plan to join the military. Glossary. Further information. Black-and-white photographs.
