DAV Distinguished Speakers Series – Correcting the Record: Veterans’ Voices on Discharge Upgrades
This event is part of the DAV Distinguished Speaker Series, a partnership between DAV and the Veterans Legal Clinic at the Legal Services Center of Harvard Law School. Each of our panelists is a veteran who experienced a wrongful discharge, suffered the harmful effects of that discharge over many years, and then finally obtained a measure of justice by pursuing a discharge upgrade. The voices of these veterans tell an incredibly powerful story and underscore the urgent work to be done. Harvard Law School’s Dana Montalto will serve as moderator. Barry Jesinoski, DAV National Adjutant, will provide opening remarks.
REGISTER in advance.
About the DAV Distinguished Speaker Series
Now in its 11th year, the DAV Distinguished Speakers Series provides an annual forum at Harvard Law School for public servants, thought leaders, and others to speak on issues of importance to the nation’s veterans. The Speaker Series recognizes leading figures in the veterans’ community, raises awareness about the needs of veterans, sparks discussion about the public policies that most impact veterans, particularly those with service-connected disabilities, and serves as a call to action for veterans and non-veterans alike to help ensure the nation honors its commitments to those who have served. The Speaker Series is co-hosted by the Veterans Legal Clinic at the Legal Services Center of Harvard Law School and the Harvard Law School Armed Forces Association.
