Ironically titled Thank You for Your Service begins with a note that it is “inspired by a true story” of Iraq War veterans struggling to find peace at home after unleashing hell abroad. He considers himself lucky, however, and even insists he’s “perfect” because he made it home from Iraq without any missing limbs. He wants to return to Iraq ASAP, even though his wife Alea (Keisha Castle-Hughes, Whale Rider) is eager to have a baby. “I don’t belong here.”Much of the film details the efforts of Schumann and his band of brothers to get treatment for PTSD. His face poignantly illustrates the sense of betrayal of men who feel their country has used them up and thrown them away.
