Homeless Vets

I keep hearing news stories about homeless veterans. This city and that city have hundreds of homeless vets. We should pity these vets. Special programs are needed to get all of these vets off the streets. I just have one observation: I thought that vets were special people who are cut above us mere mortals. I thought they were role models for our kids. I thought they were heroes. I thought they had special skills from “serving” in the military. I thought the military taught them discipline and self-reliance.

I guess they are human after all.
