As a Veteran, your military service may have exposed you to unique factors that can increase your risk of heart disease.
In addition to traditional risk factors such as high blood pressure and diabetes, mental health concerns such as PTSD and depression can contribute to your risk.
The Million Veteran Program is studying ways to improve treatments for heart disease.

🛎️ RINGING THE BELL🛎️

Congratulations U.S. Army Veteran Monte Eldert, who rang the bell this morning signifying his final treatment for head and neck cancer. He and his bride have stayed in Madison over the last six weeks for daily treatments.

He retired after 21 years of military service, but continues to serve as the JROTC teacher at School District of Beloit Memorial High School.

His fan club joined him for the celebration, including his three children, four grandchildren, neighbors and VA staff. He specifically thanked everyone in the Cancer Center and those who treated him for a recent heart surgery - he was nearly speechless trying to say thanks.

Congrats, sir🇺🇸🫡!

This! Thank you to our caregivers who take care of our Vets! 🇺🇸
