Returning From the War on Terrorism: What Every Veteran Needs to Know to Receive Your Maximum Benefits

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there are approximately 26 million veterans in the United States. As of January 2007, more than 1.6 million U.S. servicemen and women had tours of duty in Afghanistan and Iraq. When not on active duty, more than 20 percent of these vets do not have health care coverage, and many more are unaware of the hundreds of benefits to which they have access. As a result, many are suffering financial strain during and after deployment.

This is a discouraging statistic because the federal and state governments, as well as private foundations, have scholarships and military discounts available only to veterans. There are billions of dollars in aid available, waiting to be claimed, but the problem is finding and properly applying for these programs. This groundbreaking new book will provide help to those heroic Americans who have answered our government's call to duty. You will find all contact information and Web sites included, making it easy to apply for the benefits you are entitled to, while meeting the requirements of the Department of Veterans Affairs and other organizations and private institutions.

Here is a small sampling of what you will learn about: the GI Bill, scholarships, grants, companies that offer military discounts, GI Bill eligibility, details of VA loans, National Guard GI Bill, benefits after service, veterans' employment, education, and training programs, VA-guaranteed home loan, GI Bill Apprenticeship and OJT Program, Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment (VR&E), Reserve Education Assistance Program (REAP), disability compensation, employment and training, frequently asked questions, asking for local discounts, GI Bill education programs, homeless veterans programs, state veteran benefits directory, survivor benefits, VA appeals process, VA benefits explained, VA hospitals and facilities, veteran disability compensation, veterans' health care, veterans' life insurance, veterans' pension programs, vocational rehabilitation, burial and memorial benefits. If you are in the military now, a veteran, or a military family member, you will find this resource invaluable.   Order Now: Item # 9781601381507 $21.95

Italy and Back "A Black Man's Odyssey"

(Click to Enlarge)

As you read Italy and Back, you will revisit 30 years of history through the eyes of a Black man. You will identify with many of the tragedies and triumphs of a Black man attempting to live the American Dream.  

Regardless of your human condition, your eyes will be opened or made sensitive to the fact that all men, though created equal, are not treated equal. The playing field in America continues to be unevenly graded. 

The brilliance of Italy and Back will be enlightening to everyone, regardless of race, gender or ethnicity.  The crippling and demoralizing effects of racism, hatred and ignorance can be overcome in our society with the help of God, the support of a good family, and individual integrity.  As you continue to read, examine your circumstances for subtle or obvious injustices, then make a decision to do something about them.  It may be as small as writing a letter to a newspaper, or as large as starting a revolution. Whatever decision you make, be ever so mindful that freedom is certainly not free. 

Let this book alert you that the struggle for freedom continues, and that each of us has a role and responsibility in this struggle. "All that is necessary for evil to triumph, is for 'A FEW GOOD MEN' to do nothing."
