British Vet Brings Post-Combat Concerns to Danbury

A British Army veteran hiked through Danbury Wednesday, bringing attention to former military members suffering from combat-related stress.

According to an article in the Daily Voice, Neil Davis said he was headed to Peekskill, NY, Thursday, as part of his more than 3,000-mile journey across the United States.

Davis said, in the article, that veterans in both the United States and United Kingdom are not getting the support they need when they return from active duty. He cited a statistic that 1 in 10 homeless people in the UK are veterans.
