Why does it take so long to implement these programs? At last year's Milblog conf I listened closely to the DOD Rep that kept saying that "they" were getting right on whatever it was that was being discussed... We are now 4+ years after the invasion of Iraq. Seems they should "get on" these programs pronto and, not just for the vets but, for our country... Everyone knows that a Vet, even a disabled Vet, is a better hire than the regular population. Like I said, a no-brainer...

It was a privilege to work with them and share information that may make their transition to a new career, a little easier. It is anticipated that this program will continue at Balboa and be replicated in other locations around the USA. Whatever we can do for those that give us their all, we must do!!

When is this program coming to DC? We're always looking for good folks, especially those with certs. SeniorD,

Here in the People's Socialist Paradise of Madison, Wisconsin, there are many, many fine students studying IT/IS subjects. Some are employed by the Black and White Bug and others do the self-employment thing. I'd trade all of them for one Vet with the willingness to learn. Cap’n,
