Mission Continues

I just accepted an internship here for the summer at Mission Continues Center for Citizen Leadership here in STL.  

The Center's stated mission is:

To unite veterans and their fellow citizens in shared service to our nation. 

Basically they give veterans paid fellowships to continue serving their communities after being wounded in combat.  It gives them a chance to reconnect.

The chairman and founder, Eric Greitens, is a baller: U.S. Navy Seal, Rhodes Scholar, PhD from Oxford, Published author and photographer, boxer, and sub 4 marathon runner.

It should be a very rewarding time.  Check out the Center at http://www.citizenleadership.org/about.html and drop me a line if you're going to be in St. Louis this summer, we'll get together.
