One of our mission critical jobs here is to "break down the barrier between soldiers and civilians", so it's great to hear those words coming from a young veteran volunteering his time to do the same thing. Veterans returning from overseas to their homes in Washington state and the all-too-common uncertainty of transition now have a group of those who have been there, and they do more than talk. Together they volunteer their time to community improvement projects in the area, and if you don't think that can't make a difference, one of them decided to join in after not leaving his home for nine months. Imagine how much good could be done for communities and their young veterans if this idea spreads!
