Update on the News Peg!

The progress on the News Peg story is going great, I'm just about ready to start putting it all together. I am writing on veterans who served in Iraq and the emotional/readjusting troubles that face back in civilian life. I interviewed two veterans from Iraq this past week. One stayed on base the whole time working on jets, while the other was a mechanic for the conveys that traveled so he saw more. I talked to Melinda Brokaw today for some information on who might be good to talk to at St. Lukes and she hooked me up with a couple good contacts who would be beneficial in fitting the "expert" requirement of the paper. Well that's the update for now! I'll keep in touch!

  1. I think this is going to make for an excellent story. I come from a military family and I’ve seen what going overseas has done to them. I remember my dad told me once “Not all scars are visible,” and that’s been something that has stuck with me for a while now. Good luck with your story and I can’t wait to see what you make of it!
