We invest years and millions of dollars toward the difficult process of transforming civilians into soldiers. So why is there so little being done to help the soldier return to his or her civilian life?
 
Making a career move can be a frightening and overwhelming experience for an American soldier.  Leaving the military to move into [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Putting the Civilian Back into the Soldier", url: "http://www.veteranjournal.com/soldier-to-civilian/" });</script>]]></description>

It’s common for VA-approved lenders to use VA underwriting software to “read” income and credit numbers in a VA loan application to determine whether a borrower qualifies.  In some circumstances a closer look from a manual underwriter (someone with special certification for determining VA loan qualification) is needed.
