In Vets: 50 Portraits of Veterans and Their Stories. John Thamm, a widely recognized artist and painter, has compiled a memorable collection of images and stories as told by veterans spanning WWII to the war in Iraq. Some veterans had an enjoyable, non-eventful experience in the military, while others reflect on horrific memories that defined the rest of their lives.¿¿after slowly pouring through this remarkable collection of portraits and personal stories¿ I realized why there is this connection, this brotherhood, this sense of automatic bonding with other veterans that makes being a veteran something special. We may have served in different eras, in different services, in different units, in different countries, in combat or not in combat, in a hot war or a cold war, but the bond somehow holds us together.¿ Paul Quinnett PhD-clinical psychologist and author of Suicide:The Forever Decision.John F.
