Former Army Reserve Sgt. Xavier Watt visits his grandfather's grave, who served in the U.S. Air Force, on Memorial Day at the Houston National Cemetery on May 26, 2014, in Houston. Like hundreds of thousands of soldiers back from the war in Iraq, Watt has been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder and is finding that complicates things in the workplace. He takes medication to control his dark moods, he's had extensive counseling to help him cope with conflict and he leans on his supportive family as he wrestles with scarring memories earned a decade ago far away. He says he is OK to return to work and that he's got medical reports to prove it. So far, SunEdison won't let him back. The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission estimates 400,000 veterans who served in Iraq and Afghanistan have some form of PTSD. (AP Photo/Houston Chronicle, Johnny Hanson)
