 Hello, everyone. I am DAV National Commander Butch Whitehead. For months now, the nation's attention has been fixed on coronavirus outbreak. But as the VA begins to slowly and cautiously open its doors to in-person appointments, there's another issue we should be keeping in mind. The VA is our hospital, yours and mine. But too many of our fellow veterans have reported experiencing sexual harassment while at VA facilities. This is simply unacceptable. Sexual harassment in any form, be it cat calls, whistling, inappropriate remarks, or physical contact, must not be tolerated, and we all play a part in bringing it to an end. Our words and actions matter, and courtesy goes a long way in making sure all veterans feel safe and welcome at our VA facility. Veterans have the benefit of richly diverse and uniquely bonded community. We must look out for one another just as we did in service. Please be safe as you begin to venture back out into the world. And remember, respect begins with each and every one of us.
