    These Powerful Photos Will Change The Way You See Soldiers In Uniform

    Beneath every uniform there's a real person.

    Photographer Devin Mitchell's series "The Soldier Art Project" aims to depict the double life that many in the military feel they lead.

    Using photoshop and the imagery of mirrors, Mitchell captures the real people beneath the uniform that many don't see.

    One of the most powerful images, according to Mitchell, is this one of Joshua Zitting and his husband.

    Mitchell has tried to capture soldiers from every race, gender and sexual orientation.

    Response to the project has been overwhelmingly positive, both from veterans and the community at large, and Mitchell hopes to continue shooting as many portraits as he can.

    The photographer's hope is that people come away with a better understanding of what it means to serve.
