Is anyone aware of organized recruitment efforts? The only one I've seen was this one from a French university.

Firing upwards of 83,000 VA employees over the next year.
Cutting back to 2019 numbers? WTF?
1 in every 4 employees is a veteran.
What about the promises made to those who protected/protect us?
Outrage is appropriate.
