The Servicemembers' Readjustment Act of 1944, better known as the Montgomery G.I. Bill, provides for education and retraining; Congress is currently considering a "post-9/11" version of the bill with even greater benefits. The departments of Defense, Labor and Veterans Affairs jointly launched the Transition Assistance Program in 1989, and each branch of the military has since then added its own workshops.

Since high school, Collins has broadened his array of creative outlets and jumped at every artistic opportunity, adding filmmaking and photography to his repertoire. He recently completed his VES thesis, a documentary about anti-American sentiment in Europe, for which he spent an adventurous summer traveling through Europe compiling over 35 hours of footage. He has held numerous...
