Nature can be healing, and some veterans are turning to the outdoors to help with trauma and other struggles of adjusting to life after military service.

For Veterans Day this year, a group of organizations are launching the Military Outdoors Coalition to raise awareness on health issues experienced by veterans, and to expand access to the outdoors. 

For more, KCBS Radio news anchors Dan Mitchinson and Holly Quan spoke with Aaron Leonard, retired lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Army, currently serving as a Senior Campaign Representative and Chair of the Veteran and Military Outdoors Coalition at the Sierra Club.
