Defining the word "Wounded" can be difficult. Military veterans might carry physical wounds from combat, while others might carry non-visible, mental wounds. A variety of volunteer groups throughout Minnesota take veterans on outdoor adventures and other therapeutic activities. These groups help vets get comradeship, healing and support in ways they never expected.

The 21st century wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have defined an entire generation of Americans. Particularly, the service men and women who fought in them. Minnesota veterans tell their war stories, tell how they coped with PTSD, and also share how they readjusted to post-war civilian life.
