Navy Veteran found healing in Vietnam after 54 years
A Navy Veteran's experience in a former war zone had a lasting impact. The veteran spent time operating with an air wing on a carrier. Years later, the veteran's life took a turn when they volunteered with a charity.
This charity aims to help people regain mobility. The veteran's past was marked by trauma, which they had suppressed for many years. A recent trip with the charity brought them back to a familiar place.
