We want to enlighten, educate and empower our Veterans, military members and their families about all the different programs, benefits, services and resources that are offered throughout the state of Texas and beyond. Each episode will introduce subject-matter experts who can help cut through the bureaucracy, dispel any myths and provide a clear path to these benefits and programs. Visit www.medium.com/the-dog-tag to find additional show notes and links to help you navigate the many procedures, policies and regulations, so you can access every program and service you or your dependents are eligible for. Our sincere hope is to increase awareness of the many resources available and thereby improve the lives of those who have served.
