In a time when the Defense Department maintains technological superiority over our adversaries in combat, our Veterans Affairs Department must continue to push the technological limit to treating our selfless servicemembers once their duty is done. I am optimistic that this pilot program for our veteran population will be the first of many that improves our ability to heal wounded veterans. Mr. Speaker, I will leave my colleagues with one last quote. As the AMVETS' executive director stated in his letter of support for this bill: ``It is imperative that we, as a nation, look at new ways to help those who have stood up and walked the walk, and suffer the consequences day after day.'' Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to vote ``yes.''
