Sometimes the transition from military service to civilian life happens gradually over time. In other cases, it happens in an instant. Neither path is necessarily easy, but maintaining a sense of purpose is key to successfully finding a new path in life.
Alex Ortiz is a 1L law student at the Inter-American University of Puerto Rico School of Law, a 2022 VFW-SVA Legislative Fellow, and a 2022 SVA Student Veteran of the year finalist. Before starting his legal studies, he served as a wheel vehicle mechanic while on deployment to Iraq and Afghanistan with the 10th Mountain Division.
In this interview, Alex speaks with host Mary Kate Soliva about:
• Being medically discharged from the U.S. Army and suddenly needing to discover a new path and a new purpose
• Why he thinks is can be such a challenge connecting Veterans with the programs and services that exist to support them
• How life and military service are experienced differently from a U.S. territory like Puerto Rico
