Mike Haynie, Founder and Executive Director of the Institute for Veterans and Military Families - IVMF Families, shares a powerful message in his his 2015 TEDxUniversityofNevada talk, "The Moral Obligation to Know Our Veterans." He challenges us to go beyond simply saying "thank you for your service" and truly engage with veterans—listening to their stories, acknowledging their struggles, and connecting on a deeper level. Understanding and supporting veterans is a responsibility we all share, and it’s something we should prioritize every day, not just on Veterans Day. #VeteransDay #MoralObligation #TEDx #Veterans #IVMF

When you realize that you can't stay in the military forever . . . Then transition to a Veteran's life is your next mission. How long does that take? This is not a PCS move or something you've done before. Plan on 2-3 years of part time study and thinking if you want to succeed. Would you go into combat without a plan or knowing the terrain and enemy capabilities? Of course you wouldn't. You want to succeed. Did you become a military expert after attending basic training or the basic officer course? Of course you didn't. You put years and much study into it. Military transition is not different. This book by Algrish Williams, Sr., MPA is a good starting point to understand the terrain that is called military transition. #soldierforlife
