Hofmann is an article on long term outcomes of war related deaths. In this
article they explain how everyone pays the price of war. Not just our country
but also many others. The article shows how families tend to never recover from
the loss of a loved one in the military. It also states that people have tended
to kill themselves when they find out that the only person they have in their
life has passed away.
The credibility of this article is mild to okay because it
has three different authors points of view. There tends to be a little bias in
each author words. But they all come back to the same point. The article has
many facts and contains to charts that all three of the authors refer to many
times.
