Thank you very much, Mr. Chair, and my thanks to the witnesses for their excellent presentations.
As a veteran of Bosnia and Herzegovina as well as Afghanistan, I appreciate the work you are doing for the veterans in the United States.
I have a question for you regarding the reintegration of the veterans in civil occupations. I worked with several U.S. servicemen in Bosnia and also in Afghanistan, and I know their deployment was 14 months to 16 months, continuous. They were mostly National Guard and would be going back to a civilian occupation. There is a gap there, a gap of skills.
How are you able to serve these veterans who are not disabled but want to reintegrate themselves into civilian occupations, say, as professional engineers or in different technical occupations? I know that the Vet Centers are probably offering these kinds of services. Could you elaborate on that?
