Life Lessons I've Learned From Interviewing Veterans | Sara Robinson | TEDxDesMoines
Veterans Sara Maniscalco Robinson is founder, President and CEO, of The Iowa Veterans’ Perspective Charitable Foundation, a nonprofit that shines a light on Iowa’s military heroes by sharing veterans’ first-person stories through film. A native of Boone who grew up in a military family, Sara has served in the Iowa National Guard for more than two decades with two deployments. As a public affairs specialist, her role has consisted of global broadcast and print journalism for the military. In 2017, Sara founded her foundation to continue a project she worked on for the Iowa Gold Star Military Museum in Johnston, Iowa. The original project was a compilation of video interviews from prisoners-of-war. Sara strongly felt that the collection of stories needed to continue. The mission of her foundation is to raise awareness about veteran-specific issues and to teach future generations about the cost of freedom. She has a B.A. in Natural Resource Management and Entomology from Iowa State University. Sara lives in Johnston with her husband, Joe, and their two children and three Great Danes. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

In this wealthy country there should not be such a thing as a homeless vet. It doesn't matter their MOS...even those in supply roles support JSOGs

America, the land where people like you are still allowed to voice their opinion, no matter how wrong.
