The Lord's Work Is Never Done

From The National Coalition for Homeless Verterans:

"Although flawless counts are impossible to come by – the transient nature of homeless populations presents a major difficulty – the Departments of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and Veterans Affairs (VA) estimate that over 67,000 veterans are homeless on any given night. Over the course of a year, approximately twice that many experience homelessness. Only eight percent of the general population can claim veteran status, but nearly one-fifth of the homeless population are veterans."

To date (2012) the highest number of persons experiencing homeless within the homeless population are veterans of the war in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Now what does that sign say?

This Memorial Day we honor our brave men and women who have given their lives protecting this country.
