New Veteran Service in Louisiana

https://www.facebook.com/ChennaultMuseum/

Chapter 51 of the Disabled American Veterans has started a shuttle service to bring disabled veterans to the VA Medical Center in Jackson, Mississippi. 

The mission of the Disabled American Veterans is to empower veterans to live a a high quality life with respect and dignity. General Claire Chennault shares that, "It is our responsibility to work with veterans to give them the benefits they rightfully deserve." This shuttle service is one way that the Disabled Americans Veterans are ensuring that veterans are being taken care of.

The van runs when necessary and has four pick up places in Monroe, Tallulah, Rayville, and Delhi.  Veterans in need of a ride can call 318-237-9689 to schedule a pick up time.
