The Sandbox: Stories of Human Spirit and War - Mike Liguori is a former United States Marine and veteran of the Iraq War. His short story memoir "THE SANDBOX: Stories of Human Spirit and War" chronicles Mike's two tours in the Al Anbar Province, as well as his struggle coming home from service, his personal battle with PTSD and finding a purpose after war. He is active in the veteran community through advocacy events ranging from lobbying veteran legislation on Capitol Hill with Iraq Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA) to speaking on numerous panels about hiring veterans in today's workforce. Mike has also contributed to the development of the San Mateo County Veteran Treatment Court which provides veterans rehabilitation through court mandated programs and peer mentorship. He's been featured in multiple articles from CBS to independent political news outlet Raw Story about his personal experiences and work on veteran employment. Scheduled to be featured internationally, Mike's interviews include Amplify, Your Voice for Healthy Living, Metro Networks, Militarypress.com and NPR Affiliate KQED in San Francisco.
