Here's something that will make your Day After promising they wouldn't they went ahead and did it anyways. They have taken the job of taking care of our Soldiers at Arlington away from the Veterans and given it to the SBA. Scott Golden of Rolling Thunder, Inc., National Director of SDVOSB and along with Rick Weidman of the VVA have been asked to do a radio talk show Sunday at 3 PM. It was on the Arlington issue and how Procurement at the Pentagon has decided VETERAN Companies are not capable to do the Guard service or even the lawn care, yes you read it correctly. It seems that it's ok for you Veterans to fight their wars and die for them yet you're unable to do the smallest of Jobs at the NATIONAL ARLINGTON. The way it's set up at the moment those jobs will go to the minority companies and large businesses only.   It aired on 6/10/07 at 3 PM EST Click the link below to hear it careercalljun10.mp3 Some of the audio in the first 25% of this file has a high pitched squeal in it but it eventually stops after a few minutes so bear with it.
