Veterans make up 10% of legislators in the states and territories, representing every military branch and the National Guard. The dedication of these legislators who pursue elective office in the states, concurrent with or following military service, exemplifies the true meaning of public service.

Congratulations to Alistair Carns on his appointment as Minister for Veterans Affairs. As Alistair is no doubt aware from his 24 years in the military, the experience of serving in the Armed Forces can leave some veterans, and their families, with very specific and unique needs. We look forward to working with Alistair to ensure that veterans with military trauma have access to the best possible treatment and support, and that he will make sure this critical issue is championed at the heart of government.

HAPPY MONDAY/HAPPY ARMED FORCES DAY!!!!! On this day in 1950, President Harry S. Truman established Armed Forces Day. Peering through literature reviews gives you a different view of those who served. When you FOCUS, you find that these leaders cared about the military. The theme of the first Armed Forces Day was “Teamed for Defense,” and it had a three-fold mission: 1. To celebrate and recognize all Americans serving in uniform, as well as those who had served before. 2. To bring citizens closer to their military by hosting base open houses and public displays of new military technology. 3. To promote the unity of the military services established in the National Security Act of 1947. #A1CLorenzoRWilson

We talked to over 2,000 military teens about their plans to join the military, and those with a National Guard or Reserve parent or guardian were more likely than those with an active duty parent or guardian to want to serve. What does this mean for our future force? Learn more in the full report: https://loom.ly/SkG5oOM.

How any current or former military member, could support a draft-dodging grifter, who calls veterans "losers", regularly denigrates military members, their families & their service, makes little sense. More here on how many military people are no longer willing to sit-by and watch; https://lnkd.in/dKy8mhc4

As we approach Veterans Day, I want to recognize the sacrifices our veterans have made to protect our freedom while they served our country. But for many U.S. veterans, leaving military service can bring big changes, both personally and financially. Getting a handle early on your money situation, and the benefits available, can help ease the transition. Here are somethings to consider as you make the transition to civilian life. https://mgstn.ly/3FSVs8Q

I will suggest you best ways to check wars, before it erupts. a) keep a check on perceived enemies armed forces families- what are they doing, how are they making money, where are they spending, are their children intelligent or not, are their wives educated or not, are they hereditary armed forces families. Also are the armed forces personnel educated or not. Or is he or she a button push person for the political leaders. Do these Armed forces personal and their families have tie-up with internal police force which manages the civilians, if so who are the internal network of police force tied-up with armed forces of the country. I mean by Armed forces, The Army, The Airforce, The Navy and The Military space of the country.
