The Citizen-Soldier Blog

It's been a while since we've added any new blogs. This one came in the NEPA Blogs mailbag a few weeks ago, and I've finally got a moment to compose a post.

The Citizen-Soldier Blog
http://bluecorddude.blogspot.com/

John Wharton served in the PA National Guard for twenty-three years. Since June 2014 he's been blogging about Veterans' issues, the experience of being a Veteran, as well as a good dose of news and opinion. If you're a veteran, or know someone who is one - and these days, who doesn't? - The Citizen-Soldier Blog is an excellent read, and an excellent resource. Check it out!
