I have heard that alotfrom my vet friends. Even if u put ur a vet on ur resume then u are more likely to get denied a job. I don't know why but its be to me. We go put our lives in harms way to protect our population and when you get out ur not remembered as a hero but can't even get a job because ur a vet. The county wants to just turn a blind eye to combat vets like they don't exist. If anything it should help in getting a job because nothing will be as hard as the things I have accomplished in the past. I have been threw programs and counciling in my opinion it doesn't help maybe if it was a combat vet as a counciler. But going for a hour to talk about ur problems and paying over $50 does not help me. I have a journal that cost $7 and can do the same job. The va has turned me away. Will not help at all because of my ****** unit I had. My co and first Sgt told me that they will do everything in their power to make sure I do not get help or any money or benefits from the army. Its ********. Then congress wonders why we have such a bad problem with combat vets getting help.
