Clip: 6/25/2015 | 8m 35s
Combat veterans are coming home from our recent wars with deep moral injuries.
In her book "Afterwar: Healing the Moral Wounds of Our Soldiers," Georgetown University philosophy professor Nancy Sherman argues that many of the 2.6 million U.S. service members returning from our wars in Afghanistan and Iraq suffer from complex moral injuries that have more to do with feelings of guilt, anger, and “the shame of falling short of your lofty military ideals."
