Many veterans in the Bay Area end up on the streets after their tours of duty. On Wednesday, a veteran in San Jose talked about his challenging return to civilian life. William, 29, has served the nation for more than three years. “I served in the Army and I was military police corrections specialist,” he said. But when he returned to civilian life, he said he faced family issues, PTSD and other challenges that ultimately left him unhoused. “Through that process and trying to help them out, there was some personal events that took place.
