In his own words

Being a Veteran

Juan Armando AliceaFounder, Veterans Project

Being a veteran implies so many things that no one knows how being a veteran feels...All the things that we have to go thru and survive. .those times that only us can understand and feel proud of what we have done .. But then it all comes back to the mind in a overwhelming feeling that only you can feel and live.. Those moments are so intense sometimes that it has changed our lives.. and we have to carry with that feeling that some time ago like yesterday we were once those men of honor. .. that we all see and respect
