So while trolling my news feed I came across an article about fashion photographer David Jay who recently photographed war vets. This hits close to home for me as many of my friends are in the military and I have seen the effects of deployments on them and their families. The men and women featured are those who were seriously injured in the line of duty so some of the photos are hard to look at. David Jay says that he hopes this inspires people to act with love and compassion and to realize that we control our fates. I agree, its time that we pressure our government to pull our troops out of the middle east. This is a war based on economics not human rights. I know that this wont get tons of likes in popular media, but maybe if I can get a few people to read this and understand what war does to people maybe enough people will want that change. To often I see these vets panhandling because the VA wont provide support and they are turned out. So stop and help them or go to woundedwarriorproject.com to make a difference in someones life. War comes with to high of a cost. What if it was one of your family members, friends, or spouse?
