seeking to hire vets
By Army Sgt. 1st Class Tyronne C. Marshall Jr.
American Forces Press Service
The Labor Department, in concert with two other federal agencies, has
provided a tool to guide potential employers seeking to hire disabled
veterans, a Labor Department official said, Dec. 3.
John K. Moran, deputy assistant secretary of labor for veterans’ em-
ployment and training service, said the “America’s Heroes at Work”
website provides resources to organizations looking to hire veterans
with or without disabilities.
“What it does for the employer is it gives them some information
about -- and demystifies, quite frankly -- a lot of the issues around the
disabilities that many veterans might have – particularly, traumatic brain
