• Veterans possess substantial, often underutilized, political and social strength that can be leveraged to drive systemic improvements in institutions like the VA.
• Earning a title like 'Doc' in the military requires consistent, high-stakes performance, demonstrating that respect and authority are earned through competence rather than granted by rank.
• Effective communication is a critical skill in high-pressure environments, where the ability to relay information accurately can be the difference between mission success and failure.
