Family Care Plan Challenges

Sometimes soldiers are forced to leave the military because of family care plan issues. This wouldn't be a problem if this standard was enacted across the board the same for everyone. But instead sometimes special circumstances are allowed for some people but not for others. This is what Melissa experienced. On her fourth deployment in just over 10 years, she had to come home because her mom was unable to take care of her children. When she couldn't go back to Afghanistan she found herself being pushed out of the military and struggled with the transition.
