Indeed, the veterans of our country deserve everything we can do to help them when they get done serving our country in the military.
The kids today really need our help.
More veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars have committed suicide than were killed in both of those wars combined!
22 veterans a day commit suicide, 1 every 65 minutes!

It's a national disgrace that we can't do more for them to prevent them from giving up hope and cashing it in.
