Doug, thanks for getting in touch with Shane for me; he's putting together a quote right now. Also, he mentioned that you were interested in potentially working with the VA and wanted some additional information about the program that I am working with so here it is.
The program is called Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment Services. It is basically an alternative to the Montgomery G.I. Bill for severely disabled veterans who can no longer be employed in the job that the military trained them for. The program provides the veteran an opportunity to be retrained in a new job field that is suitable to the limitations of their disability. For the most seriously disabled it also attempts to help them regain some semblance of independence in their day-to-day life.
I contacted my counselor to find out if there is a point of contact at the national level that I could pass along to you. I'll let you know when I hear back from him. Also, Shane did say that I might be able to help you guys out from a PR standpoint, and I just wanted to let you know that I would be more than happy to help out in anyway possible. I really do appreciate you helping me to make this a reality. Let me know if you have any other questions that I can help answer.
Jason
