Why I’m Here

I come from a long line of veterans dating back to World War I and served in Iraq as a Medical Service Corps Officer from 2004 to 2005.

 

A top priority of mine, since returning from Iraq, has been trying to get all veterans more comprehensive healthcare coverage.

 

I want to know how we can get out of Iraq without causing more casualties in the process.
