Keep your information flowing, connect with friends and family, and you can support your soldier to become the best American Soldier here at home.  You are never going to have the same person that you sent to war, so do not expect this person to suddenly show up.  It is important that you find support, guidance, and keep motivated for a positive change to occur.  Try for good things to happen in the future.  Help your soldier see that there is a light at the end of the tunnel, and remain focused on the new life ahead!
