Dan Garcia was drafted into the Army and sent to Vietnam, much like many other Americans during the 60's and 70's. After experiencing much combat and two life-threatening injuries he was sent home. Despite dealing with the loss of friends, and trying to find his place in a society that did not appreciate the blood sweat and tears that he had left in the jungles many miles away, Dan floundered for a bit before finding his niche in the civilian workforce. This is part one of our short series with Dan and his efforts now to revitalize a 388 acre of land in Los Angeles in order to house homeless veterans.
