(Hour 2b) Mike LopezWe were joined this morning by Mike Lopez for a segment of Veterans In Our Own Backyard.  Rich asked him about John Fletcher and the controversy that appeared around his use of the word ‘Christmas.’  They then discussed veterans groups and spoke about the issue with getting younger members.  Rich asked Mike about the decreasing political voice in the capital due to struggling veterans groups.  We took a call from Ed who wanted to discuss political advocacy in veteran groups.  Tune in for the details.
