Come join WLF(Warrior Legacy Foundation). A group of Veterans want to change the perception of Veterans in today’s culture.

If America only respected her warriors the way other nations who have fought us have, there would be no reason to exist at The Warrior Legacy Foundation. We spend billions of dollars on the way young children from other nations look at American servicemen and woman, but not a dime on the way young children in our own country view military service. Our purpose is simple and our goal is audacious. We will change American culture’s perception of the American veteran. Children will announce they want to serve in our nation’s military and teachers will applaud their aspirations, rather than regard them as lowering their standards. Parents need to see veterans for what they are: the best that every generation had to offer. Serving your country will be considered to be a career worthy of distinction, not a last resort for misguided youth.

Wounded Warriors are not to be pitied. We see people on the street look away from wounded heroes every day. Strangers hand them money rather than address how special these Americans are. WLF will remind Americans that when they see an Injured Warrior they should thank God that our nation still produces such selflessness.

There will never be a group that wants to generalize all veterans by those who need compassion and assistance. We will not allow our injured comrades or those who gave their lives to have that sacrifice mocked by the hidden agendas of partisans. The very same people who scream about the homelessness of veterans call Post Traumatic Stress a “disorder.� There is no veteran who has ever served that didn’t experience stress. And no one in combat has ever avoided trauma.
