Caleb, Veteran Advocate
"'He who saved the life of one man saved the world entire.' - Talmud I don't think of this as work... more of a purpose. Every call I take, and every document we fulfill, is another veteran's life or loved ones more comfortable. What we do matters, just like what they did matter to us."
-
Joan, Veteran Advocate

Successfully finding long lost documents is such a fulfillment for me knowing it benefits them a long way."

Marcus, Veteran Advocate
"It's always a pleasure working with Veterans, the feeling of fulfillment you get is immeasurable. It doesn't feel like a typical or usual work where you're stuck in a loop.

Erni, Veteran Advocate
"Two years ago, when I was genuinely thanked by an old lady from my first job for assisting her with her fraud situation, I realized that helping has been my path to eudaimonia. My purpose in life. And to be able to provide documents that will ease the life of our veterans is of great honor. Documents that will assist them in these hard times. It fills me with joy, knowing that by the end of the day, I have helped more than a dozen people by locating these documents for them."

"Being able to help veterans even if it's in the most simplest way is very rewarding for me! I truly enjoy doing what I do because I know I'm helping our veterans by making their life a little easier."

Jude, Veteran Advocate
"I'm very happy to be able to help veterans and their family members get their benefits. Getting a DD214 and other military records is not always easy. Often times, when clients are requesting their records it's during critical times like for burials and medical emergencies, and getting their military records is just one of the things they need to worry about. I feel good knowing that because of what we do it's one less thing they have to worry about."
-
Desiree, Veteran Advocate
"The documents that we help retrieve certainly isn't good for one-time use only; it is something that will benefit not just the veterans themselves but also their families in the long run. Every time I submit an order to the proper government office, I say a silent prayer hoping that we could help these families the soonest time possible. That is what I love the most about working in VHA; it feels relevant, helpful, and fulfilling."
-
Nikki, Veteran Advocate
"Every purpose for the military document request, no matter how simple it is, matters. And to be part of the team whom these people can turn to is a great pleasure as we know that somehow, our work and effort will make some difference. It is an honor to be a Veteran Advocate and be of assistance to our veterans and their family."
-

-
Anj, Veteran Advocate
"Words are not enough to express my gratitude to help our Veterans to get these documents by the time that they need us.

-
Jolly, Veteran Advocate
"This job has taken me back in time...hearing the stories of a veteran is like watching a biography of an unsung hero... listening to a wife who lost a husband is more than a romantic movie...it is real and it did happen...no actors or directors, just real life events!"

Kurt, Veteran Advocate
