Hello there at. 186650 Jimbo 186-650-5462 extension 6. 0 dot com You can follow me on Twitter at botox our guest retired Marine Colonel Mike. Rector of government solutions that clear for stock com We're talking about veteran suicide prevention and again as we go back to our calls the crisis line is 180-273-8255 they are there 247365180273255 Our number here and now is 186650 Jimbo and we have Alexandria Virginia. Hello thank you my colleagues and hello to your guest sure i'm sorry i sound bad because I have a cold I think and if I may have 3 or 4 comments here from a little different angle but they add up maybe Ok Number one it was mentioned on your show a little while ago that 70000 American factories and plants were shut down over a number of years these are paying jobs that would enable many people to get a foot up the ladder and get going you know see if it were to veterans came home to paint jobs production jobs they got going you know see number 2. Almost all local jobs around here for instance road crews you know construction work landscaping work high rise we're going to watch work going to foreign workers because they're cheaper and these were good paying jobs for American workers I knew American workers were always doing that when I when I came to area that's why I saw doing it you know you get a foot up the ladder you get going you know see you know 3 only affordable housing around here it hasn't gone condo it goes to foreign people who social workers get them on the waiting list my friend and he's found this out too if you try to estimate my friend down the hallway here. Number 4 or if I can do 1st this huge military bases can offer housing that can be administered by the 5 branch of the service of course that might help a little and therefore I hate to sound like a count here but Ok the g.i. Bill actually is not accepted at most schools they can opt out and they do my friend I mean I found out my sister found out and when he found out they can opt out of the g.i. Bill so many G.I.'s returning they in fact were into this wall here and there they can flip a foot up the ladder they can open the door you know you see and they're expected to get immediate expensive training as computer scientists a computer engineers and a g.i. Bill may not be accepted anywhere they try to apply you know see what they want to learn to this intractable situation in many cases or here and there you know you say well all right was our guest responded what Maggie has had to say regarding education housing and jobs a host of such areas I'm not sure the extent to which your expertise extends into all of those colonel but go ahead please. Yes 1st off I go people better have a cold not a not a good thing having just got over one myself so that gets on the on the good side here real quickly yes I think Jim I'm going to quickly 2 things in that statement I kind of maybe unpack it I think that if indeed as I said earlier 'd individuals have had jobs opportunities a veteran is someone that you should definitely put on your short list someone that you should screen for an interview I think they bring a lot of capability and can be very helpful to growing an organization and really put this all culture get inside that organization on the g.i. Bill the v.a. Can help you find areas where that goes another thing too besides the g.i. Bill possible 1st is yellow ribbon is another program that's available and a lot of times that the g.i. Bill doesn't have enough resources to cover the potential to ition some of the school to yellow ribbon which is additional funding that can come in they can be factored towards the veteran to help offset not only the tuitions that can help towards room board and books so there are a lot of places to take and sometimes they have a limited and that might be what you bumped into 'd is that they only say take 10 percent or some number they do through the g.i. Than the rest have to come through another door so I don't know those particular cases but for any veterans that are Listen Are those the g.i. Bill and yellow ribbon is something that you definitely want to look to explore and the v.a. Doesn't help you with that and then the others in the local area as a great work the veterans service organizations do every day they are really going to be tapped into organizations that are hiring that job boards a lot of times that can help and they also understand how to access and help guide individuals get the most out of their veteran benefits all right that very much 186650 jumbo 186-650-5462 extension 6 Rene calls in from Lennox Iowa on the boat had a job with retired Marine Colonel Mike good evening Renee. Good evening gentlemen appreciate being able to talk Thank you. Basically want to be a advocate for using the Veterans Crisis Line I had reason to need them quite badly last year and. Then fact my husband was the one called in for me. To call and talk to me they are very compassionate they will go to any length to help you out in any way that they can. I am doing 100 percent better since I called them and I I think you can body that needs help even if it isn't. Suicidal for you know just maybe just depressed a little bit or or things aren't going right there are good resources to go to and I really want people to go and talk to them if they need help well that's certainly a doors but in the half hour they were glad that things are looking up for you Colonel Yeah I could say any better I think right now but I mean that's I'm glad the genders are you know people number out there for the individuals who are Listen if you share with us I think when a firsthand account. 'd is indicative of the support you find it to be that's going to go glad you're talking wells we are genuinely glad Renee and thank you for your call and for your thoughts tonight this was a gem and shared Wyoming up next and Jim welcome. It How do you do on her well. I am a Marine like the colonel there and I work at the b.a. So for years I've been watching guys that come. Come through the v.a. System and. I think sometimes we have a tendency to use the p.t.s.d. Diagnosis is a catch all and a lot of the problems in actuality that veterans will have is that. It's brainwashing they're supposed to do things a certain way and they go from a very permissive rigid environment and then you get out of the military and you're in a very permissive environment I think that the. People who do better they have a plan they stick to routines and schedules and they have rules about everything. Like within their life when they get out of the military they stay a little more structured they do a little better. And I don't know I've never heard anybody else to say that out of the smile there's no question about the fact that the military life is a much more structured life than American civilian society particularly the sometimes a permissive levels to which they have gone Colonel. Yeah I think I think Jim Jim is right Jim thanks the work you need to get a simplified. I think having a plan that is using to find you have a future so I have a plan to do something I tend to do it you know the next to the next after you know that becomes a series of waypoints if you will on a navigational route to kind of pivot back to our time in the military right but I think that's a good thing and I think if you we v.a. With a plan moving forward that's good I think we're in a just articulated that mark all right so you're struggling having some our times and I'm sure now she left that she has a plan she's got places she wants to go things she wants to do and I think that's exactly right yeah absolutely a bit of that to Steve in the Angier North Carolina backs Good evening. And Colonel. Quick statement in 2 quick questions and as an out just listen. Suicide by had this season for anybody to type in and is especially sad that a veteran comes from home and ends up in a place where. Suicide is sts to. His or her best option. And say a night out and I'm not expecting we do have statistics rather in front of you but in general. How does the suicide rate in the end of the. Returning bad compared to the general population is number one and then how does the demographics of bars a gender. In the military compared to the general population. And I listen Ok All right very good thanks Steve go ahead Colonel Yes if I tell you there's a really good source of mention earlier some of the work to be a seal on this is available online and you can just type in the 2019 national veterans suicide prevention annual report the 2001 teen National Veterans suicide prevention annual report and that has a lot of information inside there it breaks out the demographics age groups it does a really good job of helping focus or Target where those at risk populations can be and quickly to your point is the suicide rate for veterans is $1.00 times higher than it is for the general population and the at highest that with age group is $18.00 to $35.00 and it tends to be with the time period of about a year to 18 months when they leave service tends to be the highest at risk area another $6.00 drivers they can take that can add to that we said financials one of about 14 percent of them have serious financial issues mental health is in their substance abuse is in there but we said earlier on the show there's not one single past 2 suicide bombers or one single path away from it so it's kind of a a larger problem but what we all can do to your point is acknowledge individuals that we know in our media circle or those we work with that who are struggling or who's had a change in behavior doesn't mean they're suicidal they might just be struggling with depression or something but they could use a hand they could use someone just to reach out and check in with them less so I think that's the best thing to do right there veteran suicide prevention it is certainly a worthwhile talk that will continue our discussion with the Colonel Mike Hudson retired from the Marine Corps.
