As I talked to friends about starting Project Overwatch a common question I was asked was; “What made you want to do this?” There are two prominent trends about the Veteran community that made me want to start this.

First, I think we have to be very careful about the message being sent to the American public about Veterans. I see commercial after commercial focused on “helping the Veterans”, and “the Veterans need our help”. PTSD is talked about like it comes with every enlistment contract.
