Thank you very much.
As we look at our soldiers as they're transitioning.... I had mentioned that my father transitioned out quite easily, although he had back problems, etc. I was a family member, I was older, and I had a career of my own. The reality is that it was quite easy. Let's move that to 20 years earlier, if my father had to transition out because of jumping off of tanks all of his life, resulting in a bad back, and look at it from a family perspective.
I recall all the military stuff when I was younger. I was always brought onto bases for my health care. When I went to boarding school, who was covering my health care was a big challenge.
Family members have these transitions as they transition out. How are you dealing with that, and how are we closing that seam so that families are having an easier time during that transition process?
Do you have any suggestions for what we should look at to help family members as they transition?
