What's New?
I'm very proud of my new book, For Service to Your Country, written with Peter S. Gaytan, director of the American Legion Veterans Affairs and Rehabilitation Division. At a time when the VA is overwhelmed with returning soldiers, many suffering grievous injuries, For Service to Your Country provides an insider's guide to navigating the complex and often frustrating Veterans Affairs system. It takes veterans step-by-step through the process of securing the benefits that they have earned through their service. Senator Bob Dole has written the foreword and says, "Our nation's Founding Fathers understood that every American owes a lifetime debt to those who put their own lives in danger to preserve our liberty." It is my privilege to have co-authored For Service to Your Country, available June 2008.
