Change in Veterans going to the Vet Centers

I was recently told that now the number of Military Veterans that are going the the Vet Centers has shifted from the Vietnam Vets to veterans who were in conflicts and wars AFTER Vietnam!  The is supposedly the first time that new applicants are more numerous for conflicts AFTER Vietnam.

Probably the greatest number of attendees at the Vet Center and the use of their services is still the Vietnam Vet, but now the new people who seek assistance has finally shifted from the Vietnam Era veteran to younger veterans who have served in the military after Vietnam.

Don't be embarrassed checking out what is available in the Vet Centers for veterans engaged in Military Conflict during their tour of duty in the Military.

That is why the Vet Centers were created! 

A facility where counselors are there to assist the military veteran ease back into society after having endured military conflict overseas.  Not only for the veteran, but for the benefit of spouses and family members of those veterans.

Throughout my life I have felt very blessed to have been born into this Nation and have always been proud of being a US Citizen.  From time to time I have been disappointed by the policies of the Government but I have maintained an attitude of tolerance when I was uncomfortable and strong pride when in agreement. I happen to be very proud and pleased with the direction the Country is finally headed once again.  Some of it is my age and seeing the Nation return ag

My site - Time and Date

When I created my site many years ago, one of the first things I decided to create on it was what I considered a very useful link to what I considered a great site. On the top of THIS blog I put a link that would bring you back to my Home Page.  Of course you can go everywhere from there.  But on my home page, above my name, is the link that I was so impressed by.  I wanted people around the world to know exactly the time here in the Phoenix area at any given moment.  I know people all around the world in many Countries.
