For any one curious about the lives of veterans once they return home, the Veteran Vision Project photo collection is a revelation. No one is speaking in a still photo, but they're still sending signals -- and in this collection, photographer Devin Mitchell has asked dozens of veterans to send messages or tell stories about themselves while posing in front of a mirror.
