Be on the lookout for anger or hostility directed at Veterans...

Many veterans around the country are currently reporting that they are having problems
getting jobs and getting into school. These veterans believe that the problems they are
encountering come from individuals in the private and academic
sector who are anti-military and anti-war.

The rising level of resistance veterans today are currently experiencing is similar to the
administrative and sometimes violent hostility directed at Vietnam era veterans in the
1970's and 1980's who also had trouble getting into colleges,
or after gaining entry, receiving prejudicial treatment from campus staffers. Military
veterans are also finding it harder than their non-military age-groups to find employment.
Anti-war anger is always taken out on the veteran when the
President and his generals fail to achieve a quick and successful end to hostily and
potential threat to America.

Growing public anger and frustration over the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan is due in large
part because of the billions of dollars still being directed by the current President who
promised in his pre-election campaign speeches to end these
expensive and non-productive missions that are creating jobs in Iraq and Afghanistan but
are not improving the lives of
Americans.

All veteran agencies and organizations are asked to keep an alert eye for any complaints
registered by veterans who are experiencing problems in getting college enrollment or
employment. Veteran' agencies and organization should create and
maintain a centralized database of these complaints and their details. This collected data
will be highly useful by pro-veteran members of Congress who can and will enact
legislation to protect veterans from prejudicial abuse.
