SWE Highlight: Community Meets Veteran


"Community Meets Veteran," published in 1945, is a recent addition to the Saskatchewan War Experience from the Saskatchewan Legislative Library.

The pamphlet discusses the needs of veterans upon their return home. The importance of a place in the community is emphasized, whether that means a job that the returned soldier can feel passionate about, or a way to address the issues that experience in war has made important.

The various forms of government funding and assistance to veterans are explained, and recommended readings and films about the returned soldier are listed.
