Welcome Back Veterans

Major League Baseball made a commitment to support our Veterans. This partnership with WelcomeBackVeterans.org with Tom Hanks as the spokesmen for the PSA is a step in the right direction to increase awareness of Veterans issues.

Whether Republican or Democrat, troops will be coming home. Once they get home, what really happens on "Week 2". As our Vets struggle with divorce, unemployment, suicidal thoughts, and mental and physical disabilities, Americans are waiting for the Miley Cyrus-Selena Gomez smackdown. Since Britney, Paris and Nicole have been a weapon of mass distraction, it is poetic justice that the celebrity of MLB refocus our attention where it belongs. Let's keep our promise and "Support our Troop" by "Leaving No Veteran Behind".
