"Vets helping vets!"

a (shameless) pitch
for my new career ...

While in training for veteran advocacy,
those veterans in need for disability assistance,
please feel free to give me a call.

I will be happy to direct you to a veterans service organization
ready to help you file a claim with the Dept. of Veterans Affair

Your nation should not forget those that served having
service connected disabilities.

PROLOGUE

"to care for him who shall have borne the
battle and for his widow and his orphan...."

Abraham Lincoln

    Abraham Lincoln emphasized the debt owed to America's veterans and our citizens have honored that debt by creating the Department of Veterans Affairs whose responsibility it is to place into deeds those words.

    Veterans Benefits Administration employees have a unique opportunity to serve America's veterans. Our mission is to see that our country's veterans and their dependents receive the benefits they so richly deserve. We are fortunate to have the opportunity to help repay those who so courageously and unselfishly served their country.

    In performing our duties we must be constantly aware of the special status of those we serve. They responded willingly when called to duty to defend the people of the United States, risking their lives and limbs. We must respond just as willingly to their needs and those of their families.
