  VA Program Promotes Employment Among New Vets


    Young veterans face unemployment rates three times the national average, so a new Department of Veterans Affairs program is working to promote job opportunities for those leaving military service, the Veterans Affairs secretary said. R. James Nicholson spoke to the American Forces Press Service and the Pentagon Channel in anticipation of National Veterans Awareness Week, which began Nov. 6 and continues through Nov. 12. "Fulfilling the Commitment - Coming Home to Work" is a new VA initiative focused on veterans of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom, Nicholson said. The initiative, announced in mid-October, taps into existing federal, state and private-sector resources to help the 200,000 servicemembers who separate from active military service each year.
