Local soldiers, looking for ways to deal with their own stress since returning from war, are trying to help soldiers just coming home by giving advice on how make the transition that has been tough for so many.
The Army begins screening soldiers right when they get home to see who needs help. Captain Brett Kelley works with Fort Carson's Transition Command, which has about 700 soldiers who are home and most of whom are medically discharging from the Army.
"We do a pretty good job, but obviously if you have eight-thousand, nine-thousand soldiers coming back you're going to have a lot of issues," says Capt. Kelley.
