I'm sure this kind of on-the-job training that the military now provides will be invaluable to these soldiers when they transition back to civilian life.

I don't think the average American understands how many folks pay for nursing home care through Medicaid. It's not just poor people. This is oversimplifying but, the way our system is set up is that you sell everything you own to pay for it, then you apply for medicaid to pay for the rest.
