Week2 Returning Veteran

As watching the movie American snipper it touched me when seeing the main character shooting the mother then her child. It would be tough to shoot a child, if anyone returns home from the war would stick that to them. Of course he or she well have to face the law coming home.


The main character I think almost cried when he thought this little kid kicked up an RPG, but the kid notice it was to heavy and runs away. Anyone doesn't want to shoot a kid, however to save soldiers they might have to. It's sad really.

As getting close to the end of the movie he wanted to come home, he went to the bar of his hometown. He was thinking, thinking of the people he killed and the child he killed in the beginning.

Any solider returning home might have that state in mind that their being under attack, it'll hunt them until the day they die. Like when the dog was playing with the kid during their families bbq, he thought the dog was hurting the kid. In his mind instantly went to combat mood. as he snapped out of it, he notice he wasn't at war anymore.

I think that can be helped but it won't vanish, it'll stay with them. Anything can triggers their combat mood, in a work field some of them can be ok working with some tools. When some Veteran have it worse than others may not work with any type of tools, who knows they might think your the enemy which your not and might hurt someone.
