On October 25, President Obama said all U.S. soldiers are coming home from Iraq. What happens when the welcome-home celebrations end? How do  returning troops adjust to civilian life? This hour, we’ll talk with a reporter who’s spent time with Marines in Iraq and at Camp Pendleton. We’ll also hear about suicide prevention and special courts established for veterans.

Guest:

  • Tony Perry (Reporter, State Bureau, Los Angeles Times)
  • Bernard Williams (Suicide Prevention Coordinator, Chalmers P. Wylie Veterans Affairs Ambulatory Care Center)
  • Jerry Ault (Judge, Mansfield Municipal Court)
