Message of Support from General James Mattis
I admire what Dominick Farinacci and Jaymes Poling have created. Engaging on this issue and restoring some balance in terms of characterizing our veterans as more than damaged goods can only be healthy for our vets, our armed forces recruiting, and our country. The breadth of your engagements is impressive and stands impressive in terms of showing your commitment.
Best wishes as you continue your necessary and worthy mission paying our respects to all veterans and, by extension, to the Gold Star families.
Sincerely,
Jim Mattis
Retired United States Marine Corps Four Star General & 26th U.S. Secretary of Defense
