    Ensign Wesley Yuan, Navy Medical Corps and Health Professions Scholarship Program student, Mr. Ronald Steptoe, CEO of Warrior Centric Health, Captain Caleb Manning, Army Nurse and Cherry Hill Medical Recruiting Station Officer in Charge, Ensign Harish Jairam, former Navy submariner and current Navy Health Professions Scholarship Program (HPSP) student, and Sgt. Patrick Brown, USMC (ret.), gave a presentation to students at Rowan University's Cooper School of Medicine on Veteran Healthcare Challenges.

    Veterans face a number of challenges when leaving the service, including getting the healthcare they need. Given that out of 20 million veterans in the United States, only 9 million are in the VA healthcare system, the importance of civilian practitioners understanding how to treat veterans is crucial to that population.
