E149: Veterans Day Special Episode
It’s veteran’s day 2015. This year we’re doing a special episode with Jeremy Paris, host of the Veteran Resource Podcast. Whether you are a vet or just want to find out about getting involved with organizations, you’ll get a lot out of this episode.
Typically folks in the survival podcast genre will talk about what it means to serve. And they may tell stories of their service. But we have something different that could help vets.
You see, the Veteran Resource Podcast was created to introduce veterans to Veteran Service Organizations. And as you find out in this episode there are THOUSANDS out there!
We’ve all heared of the Wounded Warrior project. But there are a lot more out there, it turns out. One is even focused on sustainable farming.
