Fighting for a Cause: Veterans, Commitment, and Disillusionment in the Ukraine Conflict

This week on the Richard Leonard Show talks about a growing number of U.S. military veterans have chosen to fight in the Ukraine war, only to return with a sense of betrayal and disillusionment. These veterans, who once answered the call to serve in the name of freedom and justice, now find themselves questioning the very nation they fought for. As they stand in foreign lands, fighting for a cause far removed from home, the support they expected from the U.S. government is wavering. The cost of war, both financial and emotional, has led them to reevaluate their place in a system they feel has abandoned them.
