Happy Veterans Day Message from "Chattin' Wit Slim"

How my experiences in military service (US Navy) effect my personal views on the issues going on in the world today, and how to raise awareness for mental health in stressful times for our Veterans and Active-duty military.

I give a little bit of backstory on my service in the United States Navy as well as focusing on organizations, groups, and businesses who support our Veterans and Active Duty Military.
