All I can say right now is, “Thank you Squarespace!” I woke up this morning to find out that Squarespace had refunded The Inveterate Veteran’s money and had donated its services for the next year to The Inveterate Veteran! While I am extremely grateful and humbled by this show of silent support by Squarespace (they just refunded the money without asking for anything publicity in return), I am a big believer in paying it forward and helping others. Therefore, I’m asking for ideas on how The Inveterate Veteran can help veterans with the refunded money. Here are my top 5 ideas for what can be done with the money:
There are many times in life where veterans are proud to both be veterans and proud of their country. If you're like me, and have been watching the Olympics recently, you can't help to smile at Russia's constant problems and bad press.

If you’re a fan of The Walking Dead like me and watched last Sunday’s episode then you saw a fantastic demonstration of the skills necessary to survive the zombie apocalypse. One of the key skills that stood out more than any other was physical fitness. Now when I say physical fitness I’m not talking about how diesel you are— when you get swarmed by the herd it is unlikely that your 300 lbs bench press or your 500 lbs dead lift will come to your rescue—or how flexible you are—it is just as unlikely that your Parivrtti Trikonasana to Prasarita Uttanasana yoga pose will allow you to twist and flip through the herd like you’re Eddie Gordo from Tekken 3. No when I say physical fitness I am talking about the often hated and often overlooked component in everybody’s program—Cardiorespiratory Endurance.
