Veteran Voices: SITREP
We are Tom and Chris Faust; father and son. We are veterans. We are Veteran Voices. This is SITREP, where we provide information about resources for veterans and interviews with veterans about their situation, experiences, and what they may be doing to help other veterans. Our mission is to provide information that helps veterans transition from military to civilian life in order to prevent veteran homelessness.
