RE: welcome home Viet Nam Vets re: Branson, Mo. (Murray (MAC) McNichol)hoda@article19.org
As a Canadian Vet and VAC staffer, I sropput your call for total employment for Vets. But my first concern is ensuring stable mental well being given what Vets have witnessed and experienced in Iraq & Afghanistan. In Canada, we work hard to get Vets into psycho-social and vocational rehab for mental health stabilization and meaningful training\education to ensure long term employment stability. With the economy in the toilet, it is a challenge to make this happen. I wish our Defence-Veteran's-Human Resources staff at the highest levels could get it together on Helmets to Hardhats.I can't imagine the challenges the US VA face to provide meaningful resources for hundreds of thousands of Vets returning from Iraq & Afghanistan. From personal experience, tackling the mental health front is an unfathomable task. Employment is yet another objective that is well worth shooting for given the sacrifices these people have made for the greater good! Bravo!!
