Afghanistan Veterans' Health and Well-Being

Jack Good Health and Well-being

The US' announcement of withdrawing from Afghanistan has sparked mixed responses, particularly from those who served in the conflict. Richard Mitchell, 38, who served on four tours in Afghanistan with the Parachute Regiment, said he did not think the UK would “commit to a campaign on that scale again”. He added: “I think about my mates who lost their lives, the toll on the civilian population, the resources we poured in, and can’t help but conclude it wasn’t worth it. We never had a coherent strategy or a notion of what success would look like.”With the planned withdrawal of US troops, how can more awareness be raised to help those who have suffered physically and mentally from serving in the Afghanistan conflict?
