The leaders whose lives & careers are on hold include scores of combat #veterans who have led our #troops into deadly combat w/valor & distinction in the decades since 9/11. These (people) …each have decades of experience & are exactly who we want — & need — to be leading our #military at such a critical period of time.

The impact of this hold does not stop at these #officers or their #family members.

I don't see #Democrats threatening to shutdown government funding every 6 months.

Trying to push "both sides" narrative is obviously a #falseflag #strawman position.

Soccer Builds Confidence, Skills For Ukrainian Veteran #Amputees

Twice a week, Ukrainian #veterans who have lost limbs in russia's war on the country gather for #soccer games on #Kyiv fields.

As they practice using their bodies in new ways, they joke, work out, and share the communal experience of healing and returning to some sense of normalcy

Company causes physical harm to #Veterans over many years. Pays out multi-billion dollar settlement. Stock prices soar. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Go ahead, tell me more of how modern #Capitalism is so great, I'm listening... as well as I can since I used #3M ear plugs.

Does anyone else have experience with the Journal of Veterans Studies? I've done some reviews for them over the years. Looking for others who have worked for them in any capacity. #veterans

Vet Centers in the United States are amazing resources for #veterans to receive a variety of mental health services. If you’re a veteran and considering #therapy, give your local Vet Center a try. It’s free and confidential— your records are independent from the #VA system so anything you say will not be used for a VA benefits claim unless you specifically sign a release form.

Ending the #VeteranSuicide epidemic starts with accessing quality care. Vet Centers have that care.

Bless whomever decided the #VA needed secure messaging so #veterans can send and receive messages directly to/from their providers instead of playing phone-tag for days.

"A new bill would give Hmong veterans who fought for the United States the same recognition as other U.S. veterans in Wisconsin.

Currently, veterans in the state can have their veteran status listed on their driver’s licenses, but Hmong veterans are not currently eligible for that honor."
