Re: I'M JUST SAYIN'
SteveZ mentioned job security in the V.A. Well, I work for the V.A., and I can tell you....yes...there are plenty of vets....from previous conflicts as well as the current one and the number is growing. Job security is not what it's about. Caring, dedication an honor is what it's about. The wounds we are now seeing are different....and I'm not talking about PSTD. Because of our military's excellent and swift medical care....those that would have died in the field in the past now survive....and must deal with personal horrific injuries. I see them every day. I also see "Support Our Troops" ribbons on cars all the time. Want to support our troops....visit the V.A. in Gainesville or Lake City, FL......visit a vet.....or better yet sign up as a VOLUNTEER. Push a wheelchair....and talk to the vet in it. You might be surprised at what you hear. Get up off your duffs and DO something. Anything else is just talk and it does nothing to help our wounded brave young men and women coming home. Want to learn how or what to do to help out besides talk....email me.
