Bless you, jaf306, for helping veterans. My husband of 35 years is a Vietnam vet and the veteran's organizations have helped my family so much over the years.

I definitely expect the volunteering I'll be doing to give me a sense of purpose and confidence. I attend a support group, try to give solid support to other members, and that gives me a sense of meaning...when I facilitate a group I expect I'll have an even greater sense of meaning.
