One other thing that I do as a volunteer is I work for the Stephen A. Cohen Clinic, the one out of UPenn. And I just want to encourage people, no matter what your experience was when you served or your spouse served, there's resources available to you in the military community, even if you don't identify with it as such, is still available to you as a resource.
