A unique therapy initiative for soldiers returning from war has produced a number of face masks created by veterans still coping from the stress and trauma they've witnessed.
The art program is for soldiers returning from active-duty who have been diagnosed with traumatic brain injuries or other psychological health problems.
The center of the treatment is at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center where many of the soldiers are recuperating following their tours abroad.
