Welcome

Hello and I pray that your day is a great one.  This is my first foray into the world of blogging and I hope that the information that I share with you will be of assistance to you.

As a veteran I have found that there are so many other veterans who may be having the same type of experiences that I am having when it comes to obtaining veterans benefits and learning about the many opportunities that are available to veterans.  This blog will be devoted to covering as many topics as possible in regards to veterans issues.  We will talk about the best way to get approved for your disability, home buying, medical, education, and other benefits, as well as any other topics that you feel are relevant.  We will also talk about the best way to get employment opportunities through USAJOBS.gov and how to create your resume.

I am also asking that you share this blog address with as many veterans as possible.  This way we can ensure that as many of our fellow vets as possible have the information they need to make wise and informed decisions.

Just a little about me.  I am a proud Navy veteran, even though I've never been on a ship.  Many people can't believe that but it's true.  After leaving the military I worked in various industries until I finally found my passion.  Currently I work in the Business Services program administered by the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) of 2014.  In this position I work with businesses to meet their hiring needs.  I assist them in setting up On-the-Job, Incumbent Worker, and Paid Internship training programs.  I also work with our local Department of Labor Vet Reps.   I have my MBA with a concentration in Human Resources.  I am also a disabled veteran who experienced a lot of bad service from my local VA and I have been very vocal with those who can make this experience easier.

Please come back tomorrow for our next blog.  I will be speaking about the disability process and how to make sure your claim is approved.

TTYL!!
