Biographical and Professional Information

1st Lt. Lee Alley is a decorated Vietnam War hero from Wheatland, Wyoming who now helps veterans of all wars, including those returning from combat in the Gulf, to adjust to civilian life and come to terms with their experiences. For more than three decades Lee endured an emotionally draining silence over his fighting days in Vietnam, but he now speaks proudly, openly and emotionally of his service and helps other soldiers address and share their deeply personal experiences. Lee is the author of Back from War: Finding Hope and Understanding in Life after Combat, an emotional first-hand account of a war hero's difficulty to adjust to civilian life and how, after decades, he overcame his silent suffering to become a major advocate for veterans of all wars.
