Raising Awareness: Transitioning Veterans After Service

We all have turning points in our lives. One man’s turning point led him to join the army. Despite the opposition from shocked family members, he makes the commitment one fateful day in June. What follows is a series of hardships, both physical and emotional, that will change his life forever. After ten years of silence, he is ready to tell his story. On this episode of The Insomnicat Show we get the opportunity to chat with Specialist Eric Herrera to learn about his experience in the U.S. Army, his transition back to civilian life and the importance of raising awareness and providing our great Vets with resources so they can better adapt.
