"Timothy Greenfield-Sanders is one of America's foremost portrait photographers. In his most recent project, Greenfield-Sanders photographed injured veterans of the war in Iraq. The portraits are startling in their spare and honest depiction of the scars of war."

Holy wow. This is truly something.
I watched a documentary about women who were injured in Iraq and are now amputees. It focused on the stigma associated with being a female, disabled veteran. I am also moved by the stories about head trauma victims returning from Iraq who are struggling to put their lives back together.
These stories need to be told.
Viva la vida!

Thank you for telling this story about our soldiers and what they have lost. One point-however-for many years now, persons with disabilities prefer to be described in "people first" language. So it is person [or persons] with disabilities, not disabled person.
See - we put the person first, that is the focus, not the disability.
Thank you again for the powerful post!
