We are hard at work expanding our commitment to tell the stories of veterans with the creation of a brand new Veteran Film series. This new project will feature a series of optimistic short films featuring U.S. veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. These films will show how veterans have overcome the challenge of adjusting to life back in the United States and focus on solutions, specifically showing how veterans have applied their military experience to affect positive change here at home.
The United States has been at war for the past 15 years. This new war has led to women engaging in combat roles, the unprecedented pace of repeat deployments and the use of drones in warfare. 2.7 million veterans have returned to domestic soil to restart their lives since 2001, and we will show how innovative thinking and technology have played a role in improving veteran life in the United States.
Our goal in this film series is to highlight diversity among veterans including forms specific to the military such as duty status, type of service, service region and military branch.
We thank our donors for their continued support in helping us share the stories of our nation's veterans.
