Thank you, Chair, and thank you all for being here today.
I agree entirely with the Treble Victor Group concerning transition well in advance and education, and so on. Is it that you would envision, after basic training, that the first hand they shake are the commander's and then the Veterans Affairs representative is right beside him or her, as they enter into their career in the military? Is that what you envision? Is it feasible?
In addition, within DND is there room for Veterans Affairs to be prompting people all the way through to be thinking about their post-career?
