Mechanic to Ambassador
97-year-old East TN veteran honored by South Korea.

Vet to Vet Tennessee wants to thank Bob McAndrew (Vet to Vet Tennessee), Don Dare (WATE TV), and Gilhyun Lee (Patriots and Veterans Affairs ) for identifying, recognizing, and honoring Korean War Army Mechanic William Martin. Mr. Martin currently resides in Friendsville, Tennessee, and was humbled and grateful when he received the Republic of South Korea’s Ambassador for Peace proclamation from the people of the Republic of Korea.

The Korean citizens cherish the memory of Mr. Martin’s boundless sacrifices in helping them reestablish their Free Nation. God bless you, Ambassador for Peace Martin Crawford Martin.

HEAL MORAL INJURY, RESTORE HOPE.
“My recent experience on a retreat sponsored by the American Warriors Association was highly positive. The itinerary included horseback riding, hiking, and
valuable opportunities for camaraderie with fellow veterans. The setting was the expansive 36,000-acre Rankin Ranch, which provided a memorable backdrop for the activities. I wholeheartedly recommend these faith-based retreats to anyone who can participate. The central theme of the retreat was the importance of faith in God.” Bob McAndrew, Vet to Vet Tennessee Repairs for Heroes Chairman.

We recommend you visit the America Warrior Association website - https://www.awa-usa.org/

AWA empowers service members, veterans, first responders and their families to overcome moral injury through faith-based healing, research-driven solutions, and leadership development. Together, we build resilience and restore hope for America’s heroes. The program is FREE!

Another example of faith being fundamental foundation for healing and recovery. God bless America.

Honoring Those Who served
Vet to Vet Tennessee pledges a $500.00 yearly donation to the Bradley County Veterans Funeral Honor Guard on Wednesday, August 20, 2025. John Thomason traveled to the Bob Hatley Veterans Service Center in Madisonville to recruit support for vehicle upkeep and maintenance of a recently acquired 2022 Chevrolet 12-passenger van, the Bradley Veterans Honor Guard, utilizing the vehicle in service to seven counties, in addition to being the primary organization conducting military funeral honors at the Chattanooga National Cemetery. The Bradley Veterans Honor Guard is an affiliate of American Post 81, Disabled American Veterans Chapter 25, and the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 2596. Pictured, Thomason at center with Vet to Vet Tennessee, members, Lee Bacon, Roxe Hurley, Randall Scott, and Ron Collee.

On August 20, 2025, Vet to Vet Tennessee’s Repairs for Heroes© team delivered and installed a new free LG washer and dryer to an Army Veteran in Knoxville.

Led by Repairs for Heroes© Chairman Bob McAndrew, he was supported by Bob Goguen, Lee Bacon, Randall Scott, and Roxe Hurley.

LG donated the new washer and dryer to the Knoxville Area Korean Association on June 25, 2025. Korean War Army Veteran Arthur McGill won the appliances during a raffle. Mr. McGill then donated the appliances to Vet to Vet Tennessee to find a Veteran family that needs the appliances. Click https://tnvhc.org/army-war-veteran-arthur-mcgill-donates-to-vtvt/ to read the June 25th post.

With the help of Monroe County Veterans Service Officer Andy Boyd and McNabb Military Services Center Clinical Services Clinical Therapist Travis Miller, they identified a veteran family in Knoxville who had been without a washer for over three months. This effort involved collaboration with the help of Mr. Boyd, Mr. Miller, and Mr. McAndrew. The family had no means to pick up or install the appliances. Hence, Mr. McAndrew made the arrangements with the Vet to Vet Tennessee team and delivered and installed the new washer and dryer on a very hot Wednesday afternoon.

Rebecca, the caregiver for her disabled husband, was hand-washing the clothes on their porch. This added additional work and stress to her caregiver responsibilities.

God bless LG, the Knoxville Area Korean Association, Mr. Arthur McGill, McNabb Military Services Center, Monroe County VSO, and Vet to Vet Tennessee for their collaboration in supporting a veteran family in need. These types of projects prove that our Veteran families are not alone.

Please help us continue to improve the quality of our veterans and military families by supporting Vet to Vet Tennessee. Let’s do something! Click https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=TSD82KY2JM2JJ to give!

God bless America.

Vet to Vet Tennessee was pleased to graduate a record number of JIVs (Justice Involved Veterans) today. Twelve veterans from different branches of the military successfully made it through the program and their charges will be dropped and their record expunged. We are so happy for them and appreciate the hard work that they put into completing the program.

New McNabb Military Services Center Therapist
On April 2, 2025, McNabb Military Services therapist Travis Miller replaced our friend and Therapist, Lou Danner. The transition was perfect! Travis had a full schedule at the Robert "Bob" Hatley Veterans Services Center, starting with his first justice-involved veteran from the Monroe County Veterans Court.

We are grateful for Lou's three-year service and for Travis's commitment to continue to perfect the record of the McNabb Military Services Center. Thank you, Jessica Carlton, MSSW, Assistant Director of Homeless and Recovery Services, for your continued support and services. Our Veterans Court Program, led by Monroe County Veterans Court Judge Thomas and Vet to Vet Tennessee, has achieved a remarkable recidivism rate of less than 5%, directly attributed to the services and care provided by McMilitary Services. God bless ya'll.

The photo was taken on Travis's first morning with Monroe County Veterans Service Officer Andy Boyd and the Vet to Vet Tennessee's team.
