Ok, so he is home now and they are saying that they are not going to send him back overseas to do more work and they are using his health issues as an excuse. Gee it must be hard for you to not have him home when he is overseas.

Well you need to find out all the paticulars and try not to show him that your upset and worried, because that may give him more permission to react poorly. You say he has a lot of skills so maybe he can find different work, something closer to home. Remember he has some PTSD that he has been managing so it is important that this doesn't make that flair up. So try to be very supportive and just wait to see what is really going on and if you and your husband have any recourse. If the people in charge know he will just fold and let them use excuses then they will walk on him, and that is not right. Asking for written reasons is important because then you can prevent them from doing anything wrong that can give you reason to seek legal advice. And it is important to make sure that they are not using discrimination in their decision making. If they hired him knowing his issues and he has worked for them, done his job well and was responsible he should not be fired. The terminology is important to get in writing and it is important because he has to clear the history so when he trys to find other work he doesn't have anything suggesting he didn't do his job, or wasn't capable of doing his job or was unsatifactory at his job.
