Veterans Issues NOW!

They enlisted to serve our country, traveled overseas and abroad putting their lives at risk in the defense of liberty and freedom. Many were injured both physically and mentally during their lengthy tours away from their families and loved ones. Now they have returned from the war-torn lands to a government that fails to recognize their importance and tries to sweep their issues under the carpet. Well not anymore!

Veteran’s Issues Now is a powerful and opinionated broadcast that delves deep into the world of, and daily life of, our returning U.S. veterans. Hosted by Leo Dougherty and Russ Terry, the pair digs deep into the many issues that face our retired military personal everyday.

These two are not afraid to blow the lid open on government misconduct, issues in congress, the current presidential administration, and veterans care. They pursue pertinent topics that affect all of our nation’s veterans on a daily basis. Issues such as the lack of proper medical care and facilities for our returning injured soldiers, and the 600,000 backlogged veteran claims which the U.S. government has failed to acknowledge.

For one hour per week listeners can get the scoop on what challenges are really facing our loyal veterans and just what we can do to change it for the better. Any issue is a topic for debate for these two hosts, and they always encourage listener participation. If you are currently a veteran or know a veteran you will definitely want to give this show a listen. You may find out just why there are so many frustrated returning soldiers, and why the recruitment rates for our military have fallen so sharply over the past decade.
