After leaving the service, he needed five operations on that knee. The last one caused him to spend two months in bed and he lost his job. Jeffrey is proud to be a #veteran and won’t hesitate to promote the value of veterans in the #workforce. “We are here. We are ready to work,” he says. Read his story: https://lnkd.in/gUaQHKQm
