Clip: 4/15/2022 | 2m 53sVideo has Closed Captions

A Vietnam veteran says today's soldier comes back from deployment with unique job skills.

When George Copeland returned from Vietnam in 1971, he returned to the United States and to what had become a different country. Today, many veterans struggle to find work after deployment, but Copeland says veterans fill a skills gap in civilian life because leadership and discipline form the core of military training.
