He is accredited with both the state and federal government and will be ready to start helping local veterans on Monday.

“I’ve already made contact with American Legion and VFW personnel,” he said.

In related busines, commissioners noted there will be breakfast for veterans in Flager Park at 8 a.m. on Friday, March 29.
