Dear Editor,

I am writing this letter to the Editor to clarify some things I read in another article about Veterans in Hamilton County having to travel to the Tipton County office to receive help.

There is currently nothing wrong with the Hamilton County Veteran Services Office. My dad and I are both Veterans and we had a scheduled appointment early last summer with the former CVSO, and at the time we thought it was a great appointment, but in the end, it turned out to be a lot of empty promises. We were told so many things from the woman, but she didn’t end up doing anything when it was all said and done.

We ended up meeting with her again two months later and she explained to my dad and I that she had already submitted everything for us. We soon found out that she in fact didn’t do anything she explained to my dad and I that she would do.

A couple of months later a new CVSO, Lisa Charles, was appointed to the office. She has been absolutely wonderful to my dad and me. Lisa and Robin have followed through on everything that they have stated to us.

We have the utmost respect for the office and would most definitely recommend any Veteran who is currently having issues to seek out the Hamilton County Veteran Service Office. I have gone to many different Veteran Service Offices around the state of Indiana and the one in Hamilton County is by far the best I have attended. Now that there has been a new CVSO appointed to the office, things have been running very smoothly to say the least.

If you are a Veteran and are having issues with your current services, I recommend you reach out to Lisa Charles in the Hamilton County Veterans Services Office.

Regards,

Brett McEwen
