Is there anyone here from leadership at Fort Drum (Garrison or Division) that i could ask for an opinion on veteran advocacy needs?

I have seen some gaps where local Veterans *and even some soldiers still active duty are falling through the cracks and see that much of it may be communication related. I would like to try to help make some of these connections and want to ensure i am not missing anything so would like some feedback or input in an informal manner before presenting or pursuing anything formally... please reach out to me via PM or email.

SFC Stephen King and SSG Derrick L. Lewis MBA, C-HRM are my best bets. It's helpful to share such information here also to better share the word.

Why don't you just schedule an office call under COL Bryan Laske's open door policy? The GC does maintain partnerships and external relationships in the community. Just remember that the GC has a limited role in veterans services, especially in the health realm. Any lash up with the RC will also be limited.

Another forum is the Commander's Health Promotion Counsel, which is likely delegated to the GC, CoS, or DCG-S.
