Returning Home
For the serving
Depending on where you have been and what you have seen depends on how you will
feel about returning home. Sometimes it's nice and easy, and other times the daily
grind of life seems rather pointless when you have been fighting for your life for
6 months or more.
If you do have trouble adjusting, seek help as soon as you can, talk it over
with those you were deployed with, or if you don't feel you can do that, speak to
your padre. They will provide you with a good list of contacts, and religion is
only mentioned if you want it to be.

For the family
Being at home can be just as tough as being away, and the build up and
excitement of your partner, son or daughter coming home can be quite a lot to
take. You will normally be given the name of a person staying at the unit during
the deployment to ask any questions you may have. But also the Hive is a great place
to go, as you will meet others in your situation
