What Have We Done

Using 'we' to represent the civilian population, Pulitzer Prize winning journalist David Wood uses stories of our soldiers to question our role in their lives, both at war and at home.

When asked "what 'we' can do to help heal these moral wounds", Wood replies with the simple advice to listen, love, and accept, no matter what.
