The Calling
As recruits take the oath to serve, they leave the civilian world to become a soldier, sailor, marine, airman or woman. This is the start of their transformation.
The Mission
Military life shapes servicemen and women in profound, unexpected ways. Veterans' stories showcase the raw impact of these experiences.

Hollywood war stories seem to end with the hero's triumphant return, but in reality, the road back to civilian life is often less certain.
The Reckoning
Veterans reflecting on their service ask how we -- veterans and civilians together -- can move America forward.
