As the Global War on Terror continues, the number of wounded service men and women returning home is increasing.  Many of our wounded soldiers are unaware of the numerous programs offered by all branches of the military.  Representatives of the various branches of the military briefed Members of Congress, Legislative Directors, Military Legislative Assistants, and Veterans' Affairs Legislative Assistants on these programs to help them better serve their constituents.
