Returning from War

AP/Alden Pellett

It's one of the most universal moral codes: do not kill. But if you've been to war, you've learned to kill. And you have to figure out how to come home again.

We'll talk about the hopes, fears, and challenges faced by veterans returning from war with Karl Marlantes, author of the novel Matterhorn, and Jon Coffin, psychologist for the Vermont National Guard.

Post your questions, comments or stories about returning from war here or email them to vermontedition@vpr.net.

Also on the program, we'll get an update from the New Hampshire state legislature.
