16. SSG Pratt, (retired) says thank you from the bottom of my heart.

You did a lot of really good work for the VA General, and we are all proud of you, and the accomplishments you were able to bring.

The VA is a highly respected organization among the majority of veterans. We know how hard the great majority of workers are there, and we especially appreciate your leadership over the last five years at VA.

Thank you sir, and good luck!

(Preseeeeennnt Arms!)
