Your Next Mission® Season #3 EP 9 | COL (R) Claude Schmid of Veteran’s Last Patrol

In this heartfelt and compelling episode, COL (R) Claude Schmid, Chairman of Veteran’s Last Patrol joins SMA Tilley to discuss the organization’s mission and focus. As COL (R) Schmid explains, some Veterans approach death alone and without a support system. Veteran’s Last Patrol provides volunteers who offer companionship and a listening ear to hear stories and help reawaken memories of “patrolling” which can be extremely impactful to Veterans during the “Final Patrol” of their life.
