Then he came home.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHome wasn't the same place he left. Vietnam veterans were treated with suspicion and contempt. Like many veterans, Art chose to hide his service from the world, along with the nightmares and panic attacks he brought back from the war.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eWe Gotta Get Outta This Place\u003c\/i\u003e is Art's tale-a tale not just of war but also of the challenges of returning home.
