He joined our team as an intern in the Cleveland office. He impressed all of us. He was hired first part time and then as a full-time staff member, serving as a constituent advocate on veterans and military issues. Seth has helped hundreds of Ohio servicemembers and veterans navigate the military and the VA's bureaucracy so that they can receive the medals and timely medical care and benefits they earn. About a year and a half ago, I joined Seth and members in the community in Cleveland to present long-overdue medals to George Burress, a Vietnam veteran who served as an Army infantryman and earned the Combat Infantryman Badge, as well as five other well-deserved honors.
