Back from Afghanistan, soldiers look to a New Year and new life
All week long we’re talking with some of our favorite guests from the past year about the year that was, and what they foresee in the year ahead. Today we’re having a conversation with our friend Kristen Rouse. Rouse is a first lieutenant in the Army National Guard, and a veteran of the war in Afghanistan. She returned from her most recent deployment two weeks ago.
Rouse is back with us today to talk about her year away, and her adjustment to life back home.
