Welcome Home: The Story of Scott Ostrom a veteran United States Marine suffering from PTSD as a result of service in the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars.

BROOMFIELD, CO - May 14: A picture of Brian Scott Ostrom holding his little brother after graduating boot camp at Paris Island, S.C., in June 2003 hangs on the refrigerator at Scott's new apartment. "I was happy after boot camp. I knew I was going to do something. My parents were proud of me." He talked about why he signed up. "I had just totaled my truck. … I was like, 'Do I really want to take the bus to work every day for $10 an hour and live in a crappy apartment?' I was going to end up in jail or doing drugs. So instead of going to work one day, I just took the bus to the recruiting station." Scott said he was not aware of the looming war in Iraq when he signed up. "I was 18 years old. I didn't watch the news. ... I didn't care. I just wanted to do something." Awarded the 2011 Pulitzer Prize for Journalism, Feature Photography (Photo By Craig F.
