One step forward and two steps back.
Check out this note from TexVet friend Allen:

"I saw this billboard (see attached) northbound on 183 near Duval. I made a U turn to see it again, stop and take a picture.

The words “Homeless” and “Veteran” should never be used together.

I like the billboard. I called the number; got a voice message, saying all lines are currently busy; asking me to leave a message and someone would call me back.

I left a voice message.
