There are too many Veterans who don't have a place to call home.
That's why we created the Veteran's Homelessness Program.
It's meant to support organizations that know where the solutions exist in their communities on the ground.
Here's the story of one of them, @VetsCanada

90% of the soldiers on the first boats to hit the beach didn't live to see the end of the day. Look at those faces. Some of them never made it to 18.
They paid the ultimate price for your freedom. You live your life the way you do because of them.

It was an incredible honour to have His Majesty visit the Home of the @RoyalNavy #submarine service! 👑🇬🇧🐬
🏴🫡 His Majesty paid a visit to @royalnavy crew members stationed in Scotland yesterday to thank them and their families for their service. 🇬🇧
As well as meeting serving personnel and their loved ones, The King boarded a Vanguard-class vessel and was given a tour.
Before departing the submarine, His Majesty met the Submariners who have spent the greatest amount of time under the waves. 🌊
Thank you to all our Armed Forces for your service!

The @RoyalNavy has classified its ships using the Type System since the 1950s. Ships are typed by function although also by class, eg a Type 23 is a Duke Class, Type 21 is an Amazon Class etc. The newest designs are Type 26 and 31, both in build with the Type 83 to come
