The term “endless wars” has been much bandied about over the last few days. At 3 Generations we are aware that this means different things to different people.
Beyond a political statement, to those veterans we have met, listened to and filmed who suffer from PTSD, “endless wars” describes the on-going trauma they experience at home after their return from battle. This is the subject of our short film A Different Kind of War which will be featured on our new website next month. Please do look out for it after November 15th.
Later this month we will be focusing on the stories of Native American veterans. A higher percentage of Native Americans (19%) have served in the military since 9/11 — more than any other ethnic minority. Today there are over 140,000 Native veterans living. Their service to this country has been consistent and significant since before they were even granted citizenship. At 3 Generations we salute their service.
