Letter
from the Chairman
|
|
...I grew up
in a family that holds deep respect and admiration for our
Veterans. I remember hearing about my grandfather’s service in
World War II and about the heroism and courage he displayed serving
our country and defending freedom across the world.
These stories always inspired me, and they made me respect my
grandfather even more than I already did...

San
Jacinto Day
|
|
April 21st, 2021
marks the 185th anniversary of the freedom Texas, earned at the
Battle of San Jacinto.
What many Texans might not realize is that a group of Tejanos
dedicated to the idea of liberty fought on the side of Texas, not
Mexico. Leading these brave men was one of the fathers of the
Republic of Texas, Juan Seguín...

Welcome
Home Vietnam Veterans!
|
|
On March 29,
the Texas Veterans Land Board saluted all Members of the
active-duty Military during the Vietnam era.
It was a difficult time for all Military Members, regardless of
location, and, in 2007, Congress recognized that fact by
authorizing a program to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the
Vietnam War.

VSO =
Veteran's one-stop shop
|
|
Every Texas
county has a VSO or partners with a nearby county to offer Texas
Veterans basically a one-stop shop for help and information.
Veteran Service Officers are VA-accredited to help Veterans with
their claims from health care to pensions. They’re also experts on
survivor’s benefits.
