    A Veteran At The Table, W/ Dr. Mike Roberts

    TW: mentions of suicideWe have our first guest on the show! Dr. Mike Roberts is a veteran who has created an amazing site where veterans all over America can have documentation that makes claims stronger — nexus letters, personal statements, and buddy statements, structured the way raters evaluate evidence. (They are not a VSO, law firm, or VA-accredited representative. They do not file, submit, present, or prosecute claims.) VA Claim Commander is built for veterans by a veteran. We are so excited to work with Dr. Mike on this, go check it out!https://www.vaclaimcommander.com✨Support us On Patreon✨ https://www.patreon.com/c/SameTablePullUpAChair✨Contact Us On Our Website✨https://www.sametablepodcast.com/✨Socials✨TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@sametable_official Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sametable_officialSubStack: https://thepluralists.substack.com/Music licensed through Soundstripe.Code: BGT3QDWPMYBKMHRX, FPMEOKSGSQ16SZ8C#veteran #vaclaimhelp #vaclaims #vaclaimcommander #pullupachair #sametable #government #veteransupport
