There are 18.8 million veterans in the United States, according to the most recent statistics from the US Census. What do American troops, who have spent much of the past 15 years in desert camouflage, do when they come home? We will provide an open forum to discuss issues that active duty military and veterans face today including transitioning process, education, and employment. We also want to hear success stories on how being in the military has helped veterans advance in their career.
