U.S. Navy Veteran Tony Price – Gold Star Foundation

U.S. Navy Veteran Tony Price – Gold Star Foundation

Tony served in the Navy and started his Veterans’ Advocacy in 2013.

He rides his motorcycle across the United States to bring comfort to Gold Star Families.

When Tony connects with Gold Star Families the time spent lets them know that they are not forgotten. If possible Tony will use the support given to the Gold Star Foundation to assist families where needed.

This conversation is another example of a Veteran taking what he has and using it to bring comfort to others. Gold Star Foundation is a non-profit and is funded through donations. Consider supporting Tony today.

Go to www.goldstarride.org to learn more and help Tony with his mission.

335 – Chris Johnston – VA Mobile App

I was in the VA system before I could watch movies and sports on my phone. Doing anything with the VA, even with a computer, could be daunting at best and frustrating at worst. I was excited when I was told the VA was developing and fully functional app that could be used on my phone. I had such a great experience after I downloaded VA App that I asked to talk to someone involved with developing this app for Veterans.

Imagine my surprise when the VA told me I would get to talk to the development lead for the project, Chris Johnston.

Chris Johnston is the son of an Air Force Veteran. As part of VA’s Digital Modernization Strategy, he led the team that launched the redesigned VA.gov in 2018 and today serves as VA’s Deputy Chief Technology Officer for Digital Experience. Talking with Chris allowed me to understand the challenges the team faced to deliver an experience for Veterans across many demographics.

 The VA App is designed to give Veterans the tools and information they need right on their phone no matter where they are. I can tell you from my experience that it is like having a fully functional VA office in my pocket. I can’t recommend it enough.

Thank you, Chris, for talking with me and creating something that benefits all Veterans in the VA system.

Special shout out to Keith Hayes of Sinsta 1 Productions who took the VA’s Public Service Announcement about the VA Mobile App and put in all the videos for my show over the last couple of months. It has always looked great. Thank you.

334 – Gail McAuliffe – Mass Help Line

Gail McAuliffe is a U.S. Army Veteran. She is the lead for rolling out the Behavioral Health Help Line for Massachusetts. After leaving the military she worked for different organizations before working for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Veterans Services. After working for the VA she went into the private sector and is now with Beacon Health Options working to roll out the Mass Help Line.

Massachusetts Behavioral Health Line is about getting help to the citizen of the Commonwealth who are in need. Covering a variety of needs, the Behavioral Health Help Line seeks to connect people care and support resources in a way that gets help where it is needed quickly.

We talked about how this was different than other programs in terms of confidentiality, follow-up, and making sure people are getting help. The goal is to make Massachusetts residents aware of the resource that is staffed twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, all year round.

Thank you for talking with me Gail, I am looking forward to catching up with you as this program is maturing.

Go to www.masshelpline.com to be connected – Help is HERE!

324 – 2022 Year End Close Out

324 – 2022 Year End Close Out

I know it is a holiday week but didn’t want to pause. 2022 has been a challenging but good year. I am excited as 2022 comes to a close because 2023 means more improvement and more ways to connect people with the amazing things Veterans and our military are doing.
A big thank you to my sponsors and supporters, Joyce Asack of Asack Real Estate, and Army National Guard Veteran Mark Holmes of Reaper’s Detailing and Power washing. Your mentorship has helped me grow in so many ways.


My Veteran Owned Business supporters serve a unique role for Oscar Mike Radio. They have supported fundraisers and their support means people can see the amazing things Veterans do!


Finally, I must give a big shout to Keith Hayes of Sinista1 Productions. We have known each other for almost seven years, and we still have the fire to improve our craft. What you have done for OMR can’t be duplicated and I can’t wait to see where we are in seven years!
Thank you to everyone who has taken time out of their day to listen, watch, share and chime on the live chats. You all make this work, and I am nothing without your continued engagement and support. The mission is in flight for 2023!

323 – Tom Kilgannon – Freedom Alliance

Tom Kilgannon was on Oscar Mike Radio for Number 273 (https://oscarmikeradio.com/273-thomas-kilgannon-freedom-alliance/) almost a year ago. He came back to update me on programs, services, and scholarships for children of deceased Veterans. As you will hear, a lot can happen in a year, and it is an exciting time at Freedom Alliance.

Freedom Alliance has partnered with War Heroes on Water to provide deep-sea fishing experience for Combat Veterans and is looking at more ways to expand on the relationships that have been developed. Relationships are the foundation for successful advocacy, and Freedom Alliance has a long history of success.

Thank you, Tim, for talking with me and for Freedom Alliance’s continued service to our nation’s heroes. You can go to https://freedomalliance.org/ to learn more and support the work Freedom Alliance is doing.
