Abstract
- Distinguishing between the us and them of the military and civilian is a clearly delineated binary. Yet, if the line demarking military from civilian is obvious, it is far from finite. Within this demarcation or border lies the veteran. One who has traversed both sides of the line and yet no longer belongs to either side. Veterans belongs to both and yet neither caught in the haze gray but never again underway. Anzaldúa's (2012) borderlands method is extended to explore the veteran identity as a nebulous borderland between military and civilian cultures. Border crossings, identity development, intersectionality, deficit discourse, and microaggressions are explored through qualitative analysis including stylistic narrative and anecdotal writing.
