There are so many mental health issues nowadays that soldiers have problems with getting addressed due to the stigma especially the wounded warriors in the WTB. It is unfortunate that these soldiers cannot speak out for what they need due to repercussions from the military. The Army is reactive unfortunately and not proactive. It would be awesome if Anderson could and would speak with the wounded warriors at the Ft.Riley, KS Warrior Transition Battalion. I know they would have PLENTY to say.
