Letters: Vets first

Re “Neighbors oppose veterans center,” June 26

What if soldiers from Iraq and Afghanistan occupied San Diego, where a charter school and residents in one neighborhood are working to stop the construction of a home for veterans? Would those neighbors not welcome a contingent of the military?

These veterans gave, we took, and now they’re in deep mental trouble. This should not be an issue.

Let the school move for the veterans home.
