A US Army soldier heads back to base after a patrol in Afghanistan's Logar province in 2010. An ongoing VA and Department of Defense study will follow at least 1,100 service members and veterans to learn more about the long-term effects of mild traumatic brain injury, a signature wound of the recent wars.
