Are Vets Getting The Help They Need? The Pentagon Says No | Graham Elwood

In this video, Graham Elwood examines a Rand Corporation report commissioned by the Pentagon revealing that a significant majority of troops diagnosed with depression and PTSD do not receive appropriate follow-up care. Graham discusses the high rate of veteran suicides, the prevalence of firearm access, medication mismanagement with benzodiazepines, and the urgent need for better mental health resources and veteran support.
