My suggestion is that there needs to be a more proactive approach on things, instead of being demand-driven. As I mentioned, a lot of people don't know what to ask for. There needs to be that thinking: “Okay, how can we best approach veterans to let them know what they're entitled to in different circumstances?” It could be a table laid out that says, “If you have experienced this, this is what you could be entitled to and here's who you can contact.” Clearly lay it out. Obviously, there are a lot of mental and physical afflictions and so forth, and it'll take work to develop this, but I think that having it clearly laid out will be a big help.
