VeteransPageDotCom is designed, maintained
and donated by a retired military E-9 and
disabled Vietnam Veteran . I have been involved with veteran support
organizations and functions for many years. I began this effort for two reasons. First, I have a number of major medical problems and this became great therapy for me over the years. Second, and most importantly, I wanted to somehow give something back to the heroes of America despite restrictions imposed by my disabilities. This is an attempt to provide needed information to our veterans about ongoing programs to help them find answers to their problems, inform them about upcoming events around our nation, identify links to other more professional military related sources, and anything else that I find on the internet highway that is perhaps somewhat useful to our veterans. A veterans newspaper is located on the site that can be read on-line or downloaded to .pdf format. Just click on the link Read Our Newspaper. I am the Editor an content is derived from my personal ramblings, from information found around the internet, from Department of Defense news releases, and from commercials that have given me permission to reprint information. These include Stars and Stripes and Military.com. Some information is sent to me by readers. In all cases it is difficult to sometimes determine the author of the article, or whether it has a copyright. Should that occur, email me and I will remove it, but please note we are a completely non-profit operation and use of the information is only to assist the heroes of this country The newspaper is published bi-monthly. I write and print each issue in my home using my very slow 4-year old $395 PC, a 6 year old copy of MS Word and an old clacking laser printer from hell that likes to skip pages. In addition to on-line access a copy is mailed to every active Post 9877 member. I publish it bi-monthly and encourage you to send me any acceptable articles via email. I, of course, reserve the right to edit the submission or not print the article whatsoever. To reiterate and make sure we all understand each other, all content on these pages can be found on the net or was sent to me from site visitors. Because of that, I sometimes cannot confirm the author or whether there could be any existing copyright. If there is a problem, simply email me and I will remove it. I would rather you allow me to use it and I will be more than happy to give you the publicity as originator. I also try to check validity of every article, but sometimes people can convince me something is really true when in fact it is a total myth. You may note the newspaper contains some sponsors. One hundred percent of all donations from sponsors or private parties are used to publish the newspaper and purchase needed supplies. Should any excess funds be acquired they are donated to the respective VFW Post to support veterans in need. The website is paid entirely by me as donation to the VFW. Should you wish to send me an article or comment please do so by emailing me at cornhusker69@yahoo.com. Please read the disclaimer located on the VeteransPageDotCom main page in case I've missed anything here. Thank you for visiting. God Bless America and our troops in harms way.
