Earlier this evening, I arrived home after a long and productive day in DC. I learned a lot about veterans' advocacy while I was there and what direction the discussion indicates we are headed. I want to be able to take the time to address this carefully and here's what I plan to do over the coming days:
After a long day, I am tired and ready for a good night sleep. I will catch everyone tomorrow with the first post: David Gregory: Moderator.
- I will Introduce each panel member, what they discussed, evaluate how well they 'get it' and the strength of their position on the fight for veterans advocacy as I see it.
- I will discuss what I took away from the panel as a whole - what the major issues are that affect us as veterans and what folks are planning to do to fix the problems.
- I will pen with an op-ed piece about the panel and my personal opinion about the experience and the positions the panel members held.
- Lastly, I will end with a letter to General McCaffrey, concerning the comment he made about PTSD, its ramifications. (If you weren't monitoring Twitter McCaffrey said, "PTSD can be cured within a year".)
