Today, on the Hudson Mohawk Magazine we take a break from our regular programming for a show about Veterans with stories from our archives. We begin with an interview with Elliot Adams, former national head of Veterans for Peace. Then, we hear from Brian Troutman about the Capital Region chapter of Veterans for Peace. Later on, Jesse Gould talks about founding the Heroic Hearts Project to spearhead the acceptance and use of psychedelic therapy as a means of addressing the current mental health crisis among veterans. After that, Lee Vartigian, Director of Vet Services at Albany Housing Coalition, speaks about fireworks as triggers for many veterans. Finally, veteran Jack Gilroy speaks about highlighting Martin Luther King Jr.’s anti-militarism message
