Choose or Lose & Kanye West Present: Homecoming
The one-hour special, which airs July 28 at 10 p.m. ET, will feature West and Calloway dropping in unexpectedly at the homes of some Iraq war veterans and seeing firsthand the often difficult and painful challenges the young vets face after returning home.
“There are hundreds of veterans out there who are falling through the cracks. They make the ultimate sacrifices for us by laying down their lives, but it seems like a lot of them just get forgotten about,” West said.

Good to see a rapper getting involved with something of this nature.

I agree with Kanye. All these soldiers are giving the ultimate sacrifice to fight for us and this country, yet the same country who started this godforsaken war is so damn cheap, they won’t take care of them financially or even give them insurace to pay for the surgeries/medical help they need when they come home with physical and mental disorders. I’m ashamed of our government right now.
