When A Warrior Comes Home by Pete Barber

Funding cuts terminate a US Army advanced robotics project. Brian, the civilian software developer, repurposes the original code and develops a prototype virtual-reality video game. He needs funding to take his idea to market. A group of Iraqi vets who owe their lives to Brian’s battlefield robot come up with the cash. But the technology soon has to take a back seat when the mental torment of living in a war zone decimates the lives of his venture capitalists.
