DESCRIPTION:The documentary When I Came Home looks at the challenges faced by returning 
 combat veterans, from those who served in Vietnam to those returning from 
 the current war in Iraq, and the battle many must fight to receive their 
 benefits from the Veterans Administration.\n\nThrough the story of Herold 
 Noel, a homeless Iraq war veteran suffering from Post Traumatic Stress 
 Disorder and living out of his car in Brooklyn, the film reveals a failing 
 system and the veteran’s struggle to survive after returning from the 
 war. When I Came Home follows Herold’s battle with homelessness and PTSD 
 as he tries to get help from the VA, city agencies, and various veterans 
 organizations. With temperatures dropping in New York, Herold meets fellow 
 vet Paul Rieckhoff, founder of the country’s largest Iraq veteran 
 advocacy organization. What follows is a media blitz that transforms the 
 young, homeless veteran into the leader of a new movement. \n\n
