In this pilot episode of the Dog Tag, subject matter experts from the Texas Veterans Land Board (VLB) and the Texas Veterans Commission (TVC) come together for a round table discussion about your first year out of the military. Transitioning out of the military can be a bumpy ride, but the more information you have about all the benefits, resources and programs available to you as a Veteran, the smoother it will be.
Topics will include organizations who offer assistance to military members and Veterans; VA health care and disability claims; medical service records; exit strategies, and more. In future podcasts, we’ll dive deep into each of these subjects individually and share detailed information to help you navigate these often turbulent waters.
“I had no idea how strong the Veteran community was until I got out of the military,” said Eric Brown, VLB Deputy Director of Texas State Veterans Cemeteries. “I can say for a fact, that every step of the way during my transition, there was a Veteran standing there waiting to help me along the way and often times it takes a Veteran to help a Veteran.”
